Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion showing iMessages

This morning Apple issued a press release announcing the developer preview of it’s upcoming upgrade to Mac OS X, code named… drum roll… Mountain Lion!1 What’s the big deal with Mountain Lion? Apple says it has over 100 new features but, as we all know, not all features are created equal and some will go entirely unnoticed. So what is going to make Mountain Lion so special when it finally makes the scene in the late summer of 2012? Let me break it down for you…

  1. Yes, Apple really has run out of great cat names. A mountain lion, as you may be aware, is a cougar which is a puma (Mac OS X 10.1) which is a kind of panther (Mac OS X 10.3) which is like a leopard (Mac OS X 10.5 and Mac OS X 10.6) with black on black spots. [↩]

RadTech announces StuffBak Device Recovery Service

RadTech today announced immediate activation of their new StuffBak Device Recovery Service. StuffBak is a loss protection service that recovers missing possessions, with a verified recovery rate of over 75%. Rugged StuffBak ID labels can be affixed to any piece of equipment — if something “disappears”, the label allows the finder to return it easily — and get a reward too! One free StuffBak label is included with all RadTech web orders; additional labels are available for USD$1.95 each.

StuffBak recovery labels are easily activated online. Once activated and attached to a device, the labels provide automatic protection. When an item is found, the owner is contacted immediately by phone and / or email. The StuffBak website can be used to report the loss and offer an extra reward.

Finders are motivated to return lost property because StuffBak’s system is simple, convenient, confidential, cost-free and offers them a reward. Finders simply provide the label number and we arrange for a courier to pickup or direct them to a nearby drop-off center. They don’t have to try and find the owner, pack a box, or pay for shipping. Once the property is returned to the owner, they receive StuffBak’s standard reward, $20 worth of StuffBak labels, plus any cash reward the owner has offered.
