CES 2010 – Toyota Tacoma All Terrain Gamer from Kicker (PhotoSynth)

Posted on by

One of the very last things I saw on Saturday at CES was the Toyota Tacoma All Terrain Gamer vehicle from Kicker.  A tricked out Tacoma with 4 screens, 4 Xbox 360s, 2 bikes and a big screen on the back.  Needless to say, this is not going on the road! This truck would make my kids never want to come back in the house again So if you are into gaming, this is the rig.  I have include some links for your reviewing pleasure.  I even made a photosynth of it so you could be there virtually.  http://www.kicker.com/image/tid/316 Jim’s

First Race for 2010 – 28th Annual Groundhog Run, KC – January 31st

Posted on by

Believed to be the biggest organized run in America which takes place completely underground, the Groundhog Run will take place at the Hunt Midwest Subtropolis. Hunt Midwest has partnered with Children’s TLC to hold the run since its inception, and the Subtropolis provides an ideal venue for competitive running in the cold Kansas City winter! The races are sanctioned by the Mid America Running Association. http://www.childrenstlc.org/Events_GroundhogRun.html This year we are taking a group from Gallup down for the run.  Should be a great day of running and fun!  I’m looking forward to it. 2010 would be a great year for

WHS Health Add-In with the Palm Pre / Pixi (For the Window Home Server)

Posted on by

The newly released add-in for the Windows Home Server (more info at The Home Server Show or MediaSmart Server.net) from Nigel Wilks and Alex Kuretz, which was primarily developed to render the health status of your Windows Home Server on an iPhone or iPod Touch, has an additional benefit!  Maybe only for me? I was installing it tonight and testing it on my Touch when it occurred to me that I should be able to get this working nicely on my Palm Pre.  Sure enough, it looked great!  I’ve included some photos below. The add-in is a keeper.  Thanks Nigel
