OS usage

Windows 8 cannot be said to be anything else then a disaster for Microsoft. I like Windows 8 and run it both on my desktop computer at work and at home. I am even one of the few that has a Windows Phone 8!

Mobile Broadband Modem with Moods of Norway design

Today I bought an HSDPA modem (ZTE MF628) designed by Moods of Norway. Three designs are available, and I chose ZTE Cocktail with blue tractors and pink cocktails (I guess that is how they party on Voss?). Who said that modems all should have the same horrible design?
