To the dismay of the 0 readers of this blog, Techincan, is being phased out. Even after the complete overhaul of the site, the webmasters feel that it is time to move onto more exciting things that will maybe gather more attention than this humble blog.

What am I talking about you ask? Operating systems of course! Now as many of you know I am a loyal Mac switchee that occasionally uses Windows (only when I have to though).

In fact I am almost certain that you have seen more than one ad for these machines that features a boring PC guy and a fun and cool Mac guy who is supposed to be able to do all the fun stuff that you want to do better.At this point, you may be asking yourself what are these mysterious computers, with their pretty colors, docks, and what appears to be a stoplight at the top of every window.
