Sony Ericsson HBH-608

Best Blue-tooth headset I’ve ever used. Comfortable, Range and sound are good, battery lasts quite a while. My favorite part about the HBH-608 is that the ear piece doesn’t have to go in your ear. It kinda sits outside your ear. You can find them on Amazon for under $20. A very good deal if you ask me. I highly recommend these over the Plantronics or Motorola’s.

Goodbye VMWare, Hello Virtual Box

I’ve been a long user and supporter of VMWare , however there are just too many problems and glitches. I delt with them because it was a good program, but then I discovered Virtual box.

Things I didn’t like about VMWare Server.

The process to install, and get a serial for the program was lengthy.
The download was huge and took forever.
Version 1.0 had issues with vista and would cause it to crash. VMWare Server Crashes Vista
Version 2.0 was weird and not user friendly.

With virtual box I didn’t have any of those problems.
The download was quick and easy, no vista issues and very user friendly. Forgot to mention Virtual Box is FreeWare!

Avira Exchange Server Review

Avira Exchange Review

Installation- was pretty easy, only issue I had was where to put the license key. Avira support was quick and helpful.

Support- Avira’s email support is usually pretty helpful and quick to reply. They usually solve my problem the first time they reply.

Anti Spam- This feature needs improvement. It lets spam through and blocks false positives.It’s based on word lists which need tweaking. It is somewhat helpful but using a Real Time Blacklist would work better.They should team up with someone like Spam Haus to provide RBL.

Email Viruses- This is probably the main reason for installing avira exchange. It works pretty well.
