Hello World…

As corny as it seems yes this is my Hello World. I’ve finally decided after years of writing recently for the likes of Mac|Life, CNET, Cult of Mac, Byte and A New Domain it is time for me to have my own site.

The site will be growing and evolving over the next few months. Please pardon my dust as I explore the site design and provide you with some hopefully good content about my favorite topic: Apple, Inc, general computing, and other things that come to mind.

Warmest Regards,

David W. Martin
