I was having a good hunt around on the Internet earlier this week, and
there really isn't many options for getting and Android based phone as

think the HTC Dream is already obsolete (also, I believe the Hero is

(ordered from the UK well before the release here), I think it's
extremely slick. I'm not really comparing it to the iPhone (not having
used one extensively), but compared to my old Windows Mobile phone it's
just... wow, so THIS is what smartphones were supposed to be like all

Read recently that the HTC Hero (Euro version fortunately, not USA

I shouldn't mention that our flagship product involves RoR and .NET

Hi all,
Cogent Consulting has been working on a hosted code analysis
application for a while now, which we've called Codeyak. Some of you
have probably seen one of us talk about it at a user group meeting or
at Railscamp. It runs code quality analysis tools across every
revision in history for your project, to very quickly give you an idea

On this little Eee PC 900 I am currently installing openbsd, netbsd and windows
XP qemu guests at the same time, with 640Mb of RAM allocated for those VMs, and
still running other apps such as browsers, chat programs, mail client, rsync,
wget, ... The little beast is not even swapping or slowing down noticably.
