...Apple laptops, desktops, iPods and iPhones to make my house look like a deranged version of an Apple Store. Like most tech snobs, I continue to believe that compared with Windows, Apple's OS X operating system is easier to use, more stable and more fun for the average Joe...
Still, I concede that the average joe prefers Windows computers, which account for more than 90% of the machines on the Internet, according to the Web-monitoring firm Net Applications. (Apple's got a little less than 8%, though it has recently surged in laptop sales and now commands a little more than 10% of that market.) That's why many new gadgets I've wanted to write about (a sport watch from Garmin, for instance) and software (Google's Chrome browser) work with PCs only...

If that isn’t impressive enough, the Leopards are stacked at the running back position. All-league fullback Joe Russo and junior backup Tyrell Coon are more than capable of filling in for White. Handing the ball off will be junior quarterback Rob Curley, who won the starting position halfway through the 2007 season. So far, he has done an adequate job, passing for a modest 450 yards...
