As I write this post it is Easter, so Happy Easter to those of you, like me, that celebrate it. Since this is a day that I reserve for family, this will be a very short post. A few weeks ago (https://realtytechbytes.com/idxworth-itor-not/) I asked for your help by filling out a short survey…out of over…
Got your shopping done yet? Most people I talk to have gotten theirs done or most of the way done. But, when I ask them what they got for themselves I get a blank look. Apparently nobody thinks that they should get themselves a gift. Well, let me offer a suggestion. Go get yourself a…
I was one of those people who stood in line for over 6 hours in July of 2008 to buy the iPhone 3G when it came out. I wasn’t happy to do it, but I endured the wait because the reward was so worth it. Then Apple came out with the iPhone 3GS. It had…
What’s next…Weird Wednesday? Beat’s me, but in “honor” of all the shopping madness that we are experiencing this weekend, I wanted to share my favorite starting point with you.

In the first part of this series, I told you how I came from the PC world to the Mac world. In the second part I told you about the “gotchas” that are part of the process. This week I want to tell you about why it’s all worth it. Aside from the very…
Last week I confessed that I am mostly a Mac guy these days and told you how that happened to me. This week it’s only fair to tell you that the journey was not without issues, some of which are still with me. The most obvious thing that I had to deal with was learning…
It’s true. I am now (mostly) a Mac. I have been a Windows guy since 1986 when I bought my first PC, an IBM XT Clone. It ran DOS 3.1 and had an amber monitor. I used that computer to catapult my fledgling real estate business into the top 10% of my office within my…
