"A report commissioned by the Gillard government found rapid advances in technology and growth in students owning their own smartphones and tablets, combined with their declining cost, supported schools introducing a ''bring your own device'' policy. While this would ease pressure on schools faced with replacing the government-supplied computers it does raise equity issues for disadvantaged students."

"Do you know who started social media? It wasn't Mark Zuckerberg. Heck, it was way before the Facebook era. It started, more or less, with CompuServe and Arpanet back in 1969. A couple years later, the first-ever email was sent. Imagine a time when we didn't have email and you had to actually chat with people on the phone or (gasp!) in person? It was a crazy time, to be sure."

Sometimes you want to do a little task that really has to be run on Windows or there's no alternative software for Mac, but you don't want to reboot into Bootcamp to do it. And you want to keep Bootcamp, since it lets you run Windows to its potential. Well, VirtualBox can certainly help you ! It's a great piece of freeware that I recently fell in love with.
