Google Chrome OS – 2010?????

moresnow — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 12:58:28 +0000

Google Chrome rumors are running wild. Could it be that this will be the next OS to take on Windows, OSX, Ubuntu, etc. Hopefully because everything that we have seen so far from the Google camp shows that Google Chrome will be a Google data magnet to everything you do from your x, y coordinates of mouse usage to how fast you type….

Google Chrome OS will be one step closer to world domination……..

AT&T’s 3G network is terrible in Hudson Ohio

moresnow — Tue, 07 Jul 2009 19:45:44 +0000

So AT&T’s wireless 3G network is terrible in Hudson, Ohio. Their Service is terrible and the support to solve the problem is terrible. They supposedly have towers going in before EOY to give better coverage but from North of 303/91 to Twinsburg border and from 303/91 to Hudson High School it plain sucks. Whether you sit at the HCC or at Downtown 140 or North End Market you hear the curses of people getting their service dropped or the Edge Network going Jacko on you…

So how can AT&T let this happen. With the economic wealth in this area their opportunity of loosing customers goes up each day. With hundreds of students at Hudson Highschool who may have iphones and the students at WRA / Wester Reserve Academy they better improve their service. Put in some temporary repeaters AT&T…..Get Smart..

Hopefully this changes but they just lost out on a potential of 15 new accounts and just lost 2 existing ones.

It doesn’t matter if you have a blackberry or an iphone the network just doesn’t peform
