I had the pleasure of delivering the keynote speech at the Appleton, Wisconsin based “NE Wisconsin” AITP chapter’s “IT Expo” this morning. I’m considering taking my video camera around TechEd this year and documenting / sharing some of the conference.

A recent Robert Scoble post pointed to a web site by a person referring to themself as Kibo (James “Kibo” Parry). I took a quick tour of his web site, and I’m still chuckling. Check out the “virtual reality tour”.

Home Security OS? XP?!

May 14, 2005 ~ Kevin Remde ~ Leave a comment

I’m sorry, Paul, but I’m sure I’m not alone in being worried about trusting your home’s security to Windows XP Embedded. You mention that the system will be set up to get updates automatically – which is fine for a desktop or laptop PC, and questionable for a server (please, people..
