Let the Freedom/Wedding Bells Ring!

May 15, 2008 by parisla

The California Supreme Court declared today that Gay Marriage is Legal in California!!!  Read more here.

As many of you know, I have a longstanding beef with the institution of marriage.  Numero Uno on my list has been the denial of the equal right to my gay & lesbian friends, colleagues, and neighbors to be legally recognized as married.  Now, while I still think there are plenty of reasons to not engage in the anachronistic institution, I’m happy to say EVERYONE HAS THE CHOICE (in California, at least …).

A bamboo computer?

April 25, 2008 by parisla

That’s right. Dell has just announced an Eco-computer with bamboo casing. Filled with materials from recycled products, it is 81 percent smaller than typical desktops and uses 70 percent less energy. The Eco computers are expected to come out later this year and cost between $500 - $700.

Yay, Dell! I would have expected this from Apple, but you are showing yourself a leader by thinking about our environment - all while keeping your products affordable.

In case you didn’t know, computers and other e-waste are big problems. About 220 million tons of old computers and other tech hardware are trashed in the United States each year (EPA, 2001).
