The world of operating systems is more and more like the world of American politics. Simply put: We need a third viable party to help balance things out.

Biography
Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY (a fact often given away by his accent), Christopher is just your average guy. When not spending time on Neowin, he enjoys writing, listening to music, playing video games and playing the occasional game of basketball at the park. He also thoroughly enjoys going to baseball games, especially Yankees games, and hitting up nearby concerts for some of his favorite rock bands.
In terms of technology, Christopher's focus has varied through the years, with his current focus being on consumer electronics, in general, though he has a specific interest in the home theater and mobile phone industries. He hopes to share his interest and excitement for these technologies with those around him and all of his readers on Neowin.
