VN:F [1.7.5_995]
I just received the ever so popular Radiopopper JRx transmitter & 2 receivers for Christmas… thanks to my ever so loving wife Judy. <3
Last night I tested out 1 light with stofen at a Xmas party thrown by a good friend of the family and I’ve got to tell you, no matter the distance or the location I was taking that 1 strobe to I was guaranteed a no miss!
Anyways, I’m going to take out the new goods (Radiopoppers) out for some test shots during the weekend and I will be writing my opinion on them here on the blog.
I’m so stoked about this because I’ve been using Infinity Gadgets Cactus Transmitter & Receivers for a while now. With special mods done on both Trans. & Recv. I’ve gotten really cool results just as long that in within the range. I’ve tested up to 100 feet but no further. Infinity Gadget makes a great product for starters, really affordable and it does the job just as long as your within the range. I’ll be posting more later on the Infinity Gadgets. Have a great weekend and Happy Holidays.

I’m in a middle of a dilemma right now. Holidays are approaching and business normally picks up after the holidays for me and my freelance business. At home I have a powerhouse of a PC that takes care of all the jobs and deadlines that need to be done and processed.
Now, my laptop that is currently doing the job at the moment with external HDD and the software’s that need to be involved for either the shoots and/or presentations is doing “Okay”. It’s not a top of the line PC laptop but for now its doing the job. My reason for getting this post up is because I would like to hear from all of you, hear the differences and the advantages. I would like to see if its worth upgrading my laptop which is doing the job and has taken a beating during the years or should I just get real and get a Mac Laptop.
Again, this Laptop is currently doing the job but I am sure that while the industry is upgrading almost everyday I should take advantage of the new resources and techniques that are arriving for us involved in this industry of Photography and Graphic Design.
I know that Mac has its advantages, but so does Windows. I know that Mac can be a powerful machine, but so can Windows. Both involve continuous updates and lots of caring because its a laptop. I have worked with both Platforms and enjoy them both, but in reality its almost like comparing a Mack Truck vs.. a Porsche sort of speak.
I appreciate your time and opinion, I’m just in a cluster-F!@# for now. I want to know if their is anyone out there that can help me or slowly migrate to the right choice.

Having to deal with many others who have iPhones and Sidekicks, I have finally decided to get up off the couch and go upgrade to a Smartphone. A Smartphone that is capable enough to help me out on my everyday needs of emailing, file managing, texting..etc..etc. So I went over to my sales rep to see what I qualify for and behold…the beauty that caught my eye was the Smartphone of all Smartphone’s, the Blackberry Curve. We went through comparing what I want and what I need and come to see the Blackberry really fits my needs and my budget.
I was originally intending to maybe get the G1 cause my carrier doesn’t do the iPhone (yet) and I decided to give the G1 a longer wait considering it hasn’t passed it’s first quarter yet. So I went with the BlackBerry Curve!
