I would think this is a good deal.

The History Channel has a website - “This Day in History”.  Guess what it is about?  Interesting.

I was interviewed by JR Davis of Fox 24/51 Wednesday about the iTunes “emergency” that could have happened on Thursday. 

The Copyright Royalty Board wanted to raise the fee from $.09 per song to $.15 per song sold in the iTunes Store.  Apple said the increase could cut into profitability, and iTunes is meant to be a profitable part of Apple, so… they might be forced to quit selling music online.  Apple is the number one music retailer in the world, responsible for 70% of all music sold online.

Well, of course, they gave into Apple, and did not raise the royalty rate.

So, if Apple is selling songs for at least $.99 each, what is $.15?  Well, besides the fee Apple pays to the Copyright Royalty Board, they also pay a staggering $.70 per song to the record labels.  Do the math, and you can see that would be a big chunk of change to eat.

Synergy lets you easily share a single mouse and keyboard between multiple computers with different operating systems, each with its own display, without special hardware. It's intended for users with multiple computers on their desk since each system uses its own monitor(s).

Imagine this:  You have set your laptop up next to your desktop monitor to use both computers.  Normally, you would have to switch back and forth between the desktop keyboard and mouse to the laptop keyboard and mouse, and, if you are like me, you find yourself typing on the desktop keyboard thinking that you are on the laptop, Synergy fixes this.

Just move the mouse over to the laptop, and the keyboard goes with it.  Seamlessly.
