When A Good Work Ethic Doesn’t Mean A Thing – Reviews for February 23, 2012

Have you ever had the chance to be a part of history? Anyone who has been to Niagara Falls, Ontario, and has been on the Maid of the Mist boat tour, can pretty much consider themselves just that.

After 165 years, The Niagara Parks Commission has decided that good work ethic and commitment doesn’t amount o much and has chosen a new company over The Maid of the Mist Tours. This new company will commence operations in 2014.

I understand that a ‘rant’ may not be quite the right approach to our ‘best of the best’ in tech reviews around the web, however, like so many other things we have grown to love throughout the years, the Maid of the Mist is now all washed up.  That’s my rant and thanks for reading.

HIGHLIGHT REVIEW

As the prices for solid state drives continue to become more affordable, speed and reliability factors have also evolved substantially. It is now common for enthusiasts as well as business professionals to use a solid state drive for the main operating system.
