It's the second Sunday in May, which as you all should know, makes today Mother's Day. News is flowing rather slowly, and most of the HotHardware team is spending time with their families, but we wanted to check in any way to wish all of the mother's out there a great day. If you're not a mom--and let's face it, most of you reading this aren't--we also wanted to ask that you give your mom's some extra props for giving birth to a technology fan. Because without you all, there would be no HotHardware.
Oh, and just a word of advice. Don't do what Adam Samberg and Justin Timberlake did for their moms today. It's just not right. Funny, but not right.
Marco Chiappetta
Marco's interest in computing and technology dates all the way back to his early childhood. Even before being exposed to the Commodore P.E.T. and later the Commodore 64 in the early ‘80s, he was interested in electricity and electronics, and he still has the modded AFX cars and shop-worn soldering irons to prove it. Once he got his hands on his own Commodore 64, however, computing became Marco's passion. Throughout his academic and professional lives, Marco has worked with virtually every major platform from the TRS-80 and Amiga, to today's high end, multi-core servers. Over the years, he has worked in many fields related to technology and computing, including system design, assembly and sales, professional quality assurance testing, and technical writing. In addition to being the Managing Editor here at HotHardware for close to 15 years, Marco is also a freelance writer whose work has been published in a number of PC and technology related print publications and he is a regular fixture on HotHardware’s own Two and a Half Geeks webcast. - Contact: marco(at)hothardware(dot)com
