July 24, 2008 Mailbag - There's plenty more mail, with much of it about programming languages, as well as the growth and promise of multi-core systems.
July 14, 2008 Mailbag - The mail returns, and with it items on the proliferation of Vista versions, Author's rights, and the growing power of computing.
Computing at Chaos Manor, July 11, 2008 - Far better late than never, this month's first column yields continued application of the Macs, ruminations on Internet Whirlwinds, and much on future eBooks. A report from Phillip Pournelle on the Journada, then book and movie reviews round out the piece.
Computing at Chaos Manor, June 30, 2008 - Coming in just under the wire, June's second segment addresses Vista, the retirement of Bill Gates, and hope for the future, both of computing, and Mankind.
Computing at Chaos Manor, June 9, 2008 - The column opens with a schedule change announcement, then a dive into the deep end: (pre-Jobs keynote) iPhone 2 speculations, hands-free requirements, the resurrection and reloading of Orlando, and tribulations with HD TV.

Chaos Manor Reviews is the latest phoenix to rise from the ashes of the BYTE columns I have written since 1979. The BYTE column has been prepared monthly for more than twenty years. These Reviews will be done at whim, but generally weekly. I'll also add special reviews, both from me and from guests.
My primary profession is fiction, and that will get most of my attention, but there's always more to say about the computer revolution, and what hardware and software I've found useful.
We'll continue this as long as it's worth doing.

I've long run my main site, www.jerrypournelle.com, on the Public Radio model. That is, I occasionally remind readers that subscribing is a sincere form of flattery, and likely to keep me writing and posting emails and my replies on topics of interest. I also send out gentle reminders to those subscribers who've let their subscription lapse.
Getting started, I'm going to put all of the new columns on this site in the Open Archives. In a short while, I'll start putting new columns in the subscribers-only area. Access to that is going to be user/password access controlled. I'll change those on a regular basis, and send out the new credentials via email to current subscribers.
Subscribe to the Chaos Manor sites. Encourage me to keep writing on the subjects and topics that you've told me time and again interest you.
