I have worked in and around many different types of computers. In the Navy, I used a magtape drive computer that was a step down from pen and paper. I later worked for a big computer company and after that, taught computer class’s nation wide. I had the privilege of teaching 14,000 students in a 2 years period of time. Afterwards, I owned a small computer training and repair shop for a few years. I have owned C-64’s, Pc’s of various types, Amiga’s, and even Mac’s. I now have included the android to my collection. At any time, I have close to 15-20 computers or combinations of computers and game systems in the house. I look forward to more.

Review of the Kingwin EZ-Connect Hard Drive Adapter

by

One thing that I have found is that you can never have enough storage. Recently I was placed in the position of needing to move things to another location as I had filled my 1TB HDD, and I did not have a hard drive that would plug into my new motherboard. So I began looking for options. One was to buy a new SATA hard drive, but I was not sure if I wanted to … Read more

Kindle Woes Turned Gold Thanks to Amazon

by

After 2 years, my Kindle fire 1st generation died. I was sad. My entire world collapsed under my feet, and my dreams of Android freedom died with it. Well, not really, but it sure seemed like it.

Sadly, I don’t have that much money to … Read more

I don’t, but I do have several tablets and devices that rely on Wi-Fi in order to communicate with the outside world. Sadly when I need one the most, I usually have to hunt down a local hot spot, and there are times when they are not close by. It is at those times when … Read more

First Person Shooters and Simulator Sickness

by

One of the things that have made video gaming difficult for me is that with many shooter games like Halo, Call of Duty, etc. I get very sick. So much so that I start to sweat, get dizzy and sometimes throw up. I really hate it, because some of the games my kids play look like fun. I have thought about taking pills to combat the motion sickness, but even the non-drowsy ones make me … Read more

Review of Air Patriots the Amazon Android Game

by

  This is Amazon’s first game in the android market. I have read the reviews of others, and they all say how awesome it is, and how ingenious the game is.

And I quickly felt as if I was playing a game meant for my 1 year … Read more

Review of the D8 iPocket

by

Recently I got a nice little toy. It is a portable battery back up for nearly any device out there. It is billed as an Apple product, but I have tested it out on My Samsung Phone, as well as my Kindle Fire, and it works great on both. The D8 IPocket is very easy to use. All you need to do is plug it in and let it charge completely, and then take it … Read more

Facebook Game Train Station Review

This is another Facebook game. and as you can see from my screenshot, I have done a little playing. I have around 6 trains with over 20 cars attached.

Android Game: The Age of Warcraft

This game is an online MMORPG. It has a fairly large following, at well over 500,000 downloads. It boasts thousands of pieces of equipment available and near endless dungeon exploring action. You can play it alone, or as a part of a group. I am not sure why they chose the name “The Age of Warcraft”, as it has nothing to do with the other very popular online game with a similar name (probably to … Read more

Kindle Fire Game: Blindscape

I have played text games before where only your imagination provides you a clue as to what the world described in the text looks like. This game is sort of like that. Here is the difference. There is no text. In fact, the screen is completely black. All you have are your ears, and a voice to guild you. This is another one of those games I just stumbled upon a few days ago while … Read more

Review of the Shockdrop Kindle Fire Hard Candy Case

When you start, you go through a short tutorial, and choose what kind of character you want to be. A … Read more
