It is Time to Move
First, I want to wish to all of you a Happy new year. May it bring to you and your beloved, happiness, good health, as well as success in all your endeavors!
Second, in preparation for the G+ sunset, I’ve decided to host my content on jameltayeb.com. I am currently moving the material published on G+ during the past years and will post my new content there. Although I will re-post on G+ my original content and keep the light on until the very last moment, I encourage you to follow me on my blog. I hope you will be accompanying me in the future, and I thank all of you for your interest, interaction and great discussions we had.

Very interesting and bizarre early Mac extension :)

*Dayna MacCharlie*

Although PC compatibility isn’t a big deal since Apple’s transition to Intel CPUs in 2006, there is a long history of PC emulation and DOS cards that let Macs run PC operating systems and software. Dayna’s MacCharlie was the first solution to the “problem” of PC compatibility.
