You know what they say about weather in Ohio right? If you don't like it, wait a week. Hopefully next week we are back to sunny in the mid 50's again because I am good and tired of all this snow. In the meantime I am going to crab a cup of hot tea and take a look at some of the news. Any interesting article about Intel ramping down the production of motherboards and looking into other form factors can be found in the "other" section of the news, and there is a discussion brewing here.
