		<description><![CDATA[The endless hype turned out to be a double-edged sword for Apple however; it raised expectations too high.  When the curtains were pulled off the new iPad yesterday at Apple's keynote, it was immediately (and largely) criticized by many.  And in my opinion, rightfully so.  The device isn't ambitious enough, the cost is too high, and in the end, it just doesn't fit in well with all the other gadgets people already enjoy using.  Here's everything that I think is wrong with the iPad, and why it is already destined for failure. <a href="http://blog.martincrownover.com/2010/01/28/the-underwhelming-ipad/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After the fallout over the old-new Game Maker logo settled, I helped produce a topic on the Game Maker Community to get everyone's suggestions in one place, and we eventually ended up putting logos to vote and submitting them to YYG as the community's official suggestions.  It worked out well, but keeping it all organized left me quite exhausted.  <a href="http://blog.martincrownover.com/2009/12/21/happy-holidays/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Though I would normally shun he (or she) who would buy an operating system on launch day, a week ago I bought, downloaded, and installed the newest version of Microsoft's OS, Windows 7.  It's nice to have a modern OS on my recently assembled machine, and though the transition from XP was a bit jarring in some respects, any unexpected problems have been minimal so far.  Overall, I'm glad I made the switch.

Here's a quick run-down of how the (mostly painless) upgrade process went for me, from my old rig turning into a massive paper weight to the re-birth of Windows on my new machine. <a href="http://blog.martincrownover.com/2009/10/29/polished-windows-my-windows-7-experience/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I got my new computer parts earlier this week, and after a an hour or two of assembly, it gracefully sprang to life.  And on the first try, no less.  I'm proud of myself, because it's been a while since I've built a computer entirely from scratch.

Here's how the final build turned out... <a href="http://blog.martincrownover.com/2009/09/19/its-alive/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
