Amazon’s Price Drop Policy

December 29th, 2005 · 6 Comments

I didn’t know this one, not sure how it had slipped under the radar.
Did you know that if the price on something you buy drops, within 30 days of your purchase date, Amazon.com will credit you the difference if you ask for it? It’s a not-advertised price drop policy that most people don’t know about [...]

Quoting

December 29th, 2005 · No Comments

I ran across a quote today that I adore and fits me like the proverbial glove, from the ever quotable Sir Winston Churchill:
Personally I’m always ready to learn, although I do not always like being taught.
I love to learn and pick up random stuff like a drunk in a gutter, however I’m a pain to [...]

My Wife Is Switching to the Mac

December 29th, 2005 · No Comments

Paul Thurrott, a hyper-pro Windows/Microsoft mouthpiece (I’m not saying he’s bad or stupid, I’m just saying he’s uber pro MS, OK) has written an entry over in connectedhomemag.com describing his wife’s switch to the Mac.
This Christmas, I presented my wife with a new Mac mini. I honestly wasn’t sure if she’d be even slightly interested [...]

The Best Links 2005

December 29th, 2005 · No Comments

Kottke’s best links of 2005, most of which I haven’t been to before. Perhaps I missed out on the best of the web 2005, or these links are dull as hell. We let the readers decide:

December 29th, 2005 · No Comments

They’re exploring the deep sea and distant planets. They’re saving lives in the operating room and on the battlefield. They’re transforming factory floors and filmmaking. They’re - oh c’mon, they’re just plain cool! From Qrio to [...]
