    I won’t go as far as calling SL a snow job, I’d rather call it a dubious marketing strategy, with much win to Apple’s portfolio! To unquote Leo Laporte, as he was only trying to be clever with a bad pun, Apple had nothing to hide with this latest update nor were they covering up…

  • Snow Leopard: Hands On

      Before I even get started with this, let me just that this hands on review will not rival John Siracusa’s in depth analysis of the latest flavour of Mac OS X. If you need that much detail, please go ahead and read his article here. It’s no secret that most of the Fat Dads…

  • Tassimo: Service Done Right

    We have this not-so-secret society here at work called The Brotherhood of The Disc, an amusing name for the 5 of us that banded together to pay top dollar for a Bosch Tassimo coffee maker. The “Why’s” of our purchase can be found here. So it’s no secret that we love our Tassimo coffee, none…

Microsoft in its infinite wisdom choose to buy technology from other companies, tried to make it look uniform and told the hardware vendors out there that as long as you were close enough to…

  • The Dadcast Goes into Pre Beta

    We recently started toying with the idea of putting together a DadCast, a 2FatDads podcast, so I dusted off the old mic stand and put away my reels of spliced tape and decided to put WireTap Pro to the test of recording a Skype conference call between three or more of the Fat Dads. Unfortunately…

  • The Reality of Cloth Diapers

    I know this is a little off track for the Technical angle we usually take on this blog but it follows suit on my own post on the Inconvenience of Saving our Planet that I wrote about last week. A inside joke here at 2 Fat Dads.com is we’re doing it for the diapers, any…

  • We’re 2 Fat Dads and We’re Geeks TOO!

  • Flutter: Even More A.D.D. Than Twitter

    This is so silly, I just had to post this mockumentary from Slate.
