About Me

My Photo
Name:
Location: Chicago, Illinois, United States

After finishing graduate school, I worked in a corporate job for 12 years. Starting July 2008 I have opted out and am trying out not working.

I absolutely loved my job but the only way to pursue the things I wanted to was to leave the job. And I wanted to do it before I turned 40.

The freedom to travel at a leisurely pace was one strong motivation in my decision to leave the corporate world. In my retirement blog I explore the implications of my sabbatical, and my travel blog is about the different aspects of travel that I am drawn towards.

51. For Future Use

This is the old OS/2 vs. Windows debate revisited.
Back in the early to mid 90's, IBM went toe to toe
with Microsoft during the so-called OS wars. IBM lost
badly, not because their product was technically
inferior. If anything, it greatly outstripped Windows
in functionality, stability, and many wonderful
features. The problem was the interface.
