Its become a sad day here at mlgnn.com. As rumored apparently per Justin Long “the Mac” in the Mac ads, they are coming to an end. The 30 second TV ads were popular in 2006 when they first launched in the MAC vs PC war. Justin is quoted as saying,”You know, I think they might be done. In fact, I heard from John, I think they’re going to move on. I can’t say definitively, which is sad, because not only am I going to miss doing them, but also working with John.”

The ads have received a number of awards, and have also pissed off a number of Windows users (who probably like Star Trek as well). The ads stared Justin Long as the MAC and John Hodgman as the PC. There are currently 66 televisions commercials so far. I can only hope maybe they’ll so a farewell commercial. If you use a PC or Mac these commercial are hilarious even if they are a bit inaccurate. So long John, and Justin. You will be missed…

Oh PC...

Cyber Crime is on the rise, which is no surprise being that someone stole the bike I stole. Just kidding. It being reported that malware it at an all time high. Which is surprisingly at the same time the economy is looking pretty damn low. So it in turn some shady cyber criminals are injecting a small script into the SQL databases. Which will turn around and send the information that its requesting back to it “home” the shady creepy in a dark basements computer. . Which would be your credit card info, your social security number, or the fact you like girls in latex, and and Asian girls. Wait that me. Heres basically how it works.

Top red Guy bad, Bottom Blue Guy good. Hey the economy sucks, cant have big pictures.

Financial services are getting hit the hardest during these times. The second types of of places getting targeted are financial payment company’s. PayPal has not mentioned any problems with security, nor would they. These are the companies that are getting targeted however. Even organized crime is getting invloved in this raquet. Roger Halbheer, chief security advisor of Microsoft EMEA says, “If there are rumors of a takeover or a merger, information can become desirable for organized crime circles. Auction bids for a laptop of a CEO amongst criminal organizations can reach seven digit figures.”

Not to scare the world, but most companies have been preached within the last two years, but since cyber crime is up, so is the security. So if you haven’t been hacked, either you use a Mac, or you’ve been lucky. Fear not though you Mac haters malware is being developed to attack Mac, and no one is lucky forever. “Protect Ya Neck” – Wu-Tang and also for once Kevin Mitnick is not to blame.

Don't Blame me. I served my time.
