Getting heat over the iWipe
Turns out that there is already a product named "iWipe." It is a little software app from Freshly Squeezed Software that deletes files from OS X. Maybe everyone else already knew that; however, since I don't use a Mac, that was news to me.
Well, I got an e-mail from the guy who wrote iWipe and he wants me to change the name.
What I find a little funny is the fact that Freshly Squeezed also makes a product called PulpFiction. Hmmm. PulpFiction? That sounds familiar. Where do I know that name from? Let... me... think... Oh, yeah, it's exactly the same as one of my favorite movies! I guess removing the space makes that OK? Hmm.
Maybe I will ask Don to suggest a name that is better than iWipe. Oh, I know! We could just call it "JackieBrown!"

You know thats pretty funny. Perhaps his website looks better on a Mac because it sure looks like poop on IE6. perhaps her should spend more time on his customer portal than looking for a lawsuit, especially since he is sitting on one called pulpfiction
