End Of Life For the past several years tomorrowland has been a personal technology blog about all the things that made MY life futuristic and fun.

Camangi WebStation review
While the world waits for Apple to release official news about their new tablet computer, a few smaller (and lesser known) companies are releasing their own touch screen tablets. Â Archos has a few models out, there’s the viliv, and then there’s the whole CrunchPad thing which is now called the JooJoo. Â And I’ve never played…

WWDC T-Minus 4 Weeks
With less than 30 days until WWDC I’m starting to get anxious about what new Apple iGadgets might (or might not) be released. Will Steve Jobs be back from his curious sick leave to unveil the next big thing? Or will it be another disappointing and uneventful keynote? The rumors have certainly been flowing recently…
Goodbye Old G5 – You Served Me Well
This week I sold my old G5 along with a 23″ Cinema Wide Display, a BlackMagic card, Sonnet Tempo eSata card, and a Sonnet Fusion 500P populated with 5 x 500GB hard drives. It was a complete edit system including lots of fast storage, but as part of my “out with the old – in…

The upcoming Dell Mini 10 looks to be a great machine, and if my hunch is right it could be an even better hacintosh than the Dell Mini 9. Â The bigger, higher rez screen and real (as in reasonably sized) hard drive will put it in a different category over the 9. Â Plus the normal…
Dell Mini 10 – an extra inch makes a big difference
The Dell Inspiron Mini 10 has finally appeared on Dell’s website, although it’s not actually for sale yet. The big question is will we be able to install Leopard on it like we can on the Mini 9’s? There’s already a ton a buzz and speculation going on in the forums. I’m sure once they…
Apple Makes Wired Pull Hacintosh Video
I normally don’t link to outside blogs but this one needs to be mentioned because it relates to my Dell Mini 9 Leopard install video. Â Here’s the story on Gizmodo, here it is on 9 to 5 Mac. I found it odd that Wired had posted a video on how to install Leopard on an…
Four CES 2009 Products Apple Needs To Plagiarize
[digg=http://digg.com/apple/Four_CES_2009_Products_Apple_Needs_To_Plagiarize] Apple has always often been the innovator. The company that sets the trends. We’ve seen it time and time again with the iMac, the iPod, the iPhone. And not just full products but also ideas and technology, like adopting firewire early or dropping floppy discs early, or integrating touch so well. Think about how…
