Reading: “In their words: Experts weigh in on Mac vs. PC security”

Posted on February 3, 2010

I'm reading a very interesting article about Windows and Mac security on CNet News.  In this article, "In their words: Experts weigh in on Mac vs. PC security," the author gets expert input on which operating system is more secure and why.

Ignore some of the idiotic fan-boy flame wars in the comments section.  This type of useless dialog is exactly what I hope to avoid on BackingIn.com.

(In)security

Posted on December 26, 2009

I was going to wait until I returned home from my holiday trip to New York before posting an article about my experience of going through security at Orlando International Airport, but due the attempted bombing of Northwest Airlines Flight 253 on Christmas day, I felt compelled to post now.

On Tuesday, December 22nd, I packed my bags and headed to Orlando International to begin my holiday up North. After the normal routine of checking-in, I headed to the security checkpoint where I instantly noticed the myriad security guards just standing around chatting. Out of shape, slovenly dressed, and slack-jawed the guards joked around with one another and paid little attention to what was going on around them.
