		<title>Product review of Toshiba Portege R700</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been asked to write a product review of the new Toshiba Portege R700 laptop. I&#8217;ve seen quite a few laptops over the last several years with our 1:1 laptop program, but this thing is amazing! It sports a 13.3&#8243; screen, 8 hours of battery life, a DVD drive, and weighs in around 3 pounds. When [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dont need to re-image MacBooks over the summer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Every summer since we started our laptop program, my department spends a week or two (or has summer help) re-imaging the returning student computers. We have done this because the Windows machines have been so junked up and needed to be cleaned up. We simply don&#8217;t have that problem with the MacBooks. We will need [...]]]></description>

		<title>How to free up disk space on Windows 2008 Server</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I recently had built a new server with a 32 GB OS volume, and the system had a considerable amount of RAM. I noticed that I was rather low on disk space but couldn&#8217;t find the culprit due to Windows UAC. In doing some digging, I found that hiberfil.sys was consuming over 12GB of disk [...]]]></description>

		<title>Essential for gadget geeks!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the coolest presents I received this past Christmas is the PowerMat. It’s a must have for geeks with gadgets. All geeks have gadgets, and typically we have quite a few of them. In our household we have 2 Nintendo DSs, 3 or 4 iPods, cell phones, and several other devices that will charge [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hello Moto!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On Friday I picked up the new Motorola Droid phone. I&#8217;ve only had the iPhone for a few months, but I have learned to hate AT&#38;T&#8217;s network. The iPhone itself is great but believe it or not, being able to make calls is an important feature. The last straw was when my daughter had to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Windows 7 and KMS</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Before we started imaging machines with Windows 7, I thought I better get this KMS stuff figured out. For those of you who skipped Vista like we did, KMS is Key Management Service. It&#8217;s an interesting way of activating volume license keys on a network, and is a result of software piracy. Regardless of whether [...]]]></description>

		<title>Deploying Windows 7</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday I began reading up on deploying Windows 7 to our laptops. Wow, what a change from XP&#8217;s imaging process. I guess this is what I get for skipping Vista! For XP, we are using a small Sysprep script that changes the machine name, strips the SID, and joins our domain. In order to get [...]]]></description>

		<title>Start of the 2009-2010 school year</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well we are 6 weeks into the 2009-2010 school year, and our first year of 1 to 1 with Apple MacBook laptops. That&#8217;s right, we switched our program to Apple this year. Last school year we surveyed the students, as well as potential students, and decided to conduct a trial year with Apple. So far, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pet peeves with MS Office</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not sure who at Microsoft decided that they would create an entirely new &#8220;normal.dot&#8221; file and go against everything that we&#8217;ve been taught. Specifically, I’m talking about Word in MS Office 2007. The default font is now Calibri for the body, and Cambria for headings. I’ve seen countless laser printers struggle this these fonts, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Windows 7 BETA</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This past weekend, Windows 7 BETA was released to the public and I was one of the millions of people who attempted the download. It took me about 19 hours to download which isn&#8217;t too bad, but that was after more download servers were added. I am installing it on a VMWare virtual machine as [...]]]></description>
