All We Need is a Reset Button
I don’t know what it is about kids and iPods. Sometimes I think I should expand my consulting practice to include the fixing, resetting, and yes, disposing of unusable iPods. Seems my two boys have a knack for doing things to their iPods for which they just weren’t designed.
Oh, you know: laundering them, leaving them outside in the rain, stepping on them, sitting on their chair on top of them. And then, they wonder why they don’t work anymore. Gee, how I wonder. 
One interesting aspect of this is an application Apple provides on there support site that let’s you completely reset an iPod. It’s called, quite appropriately, the iPod Reset Utility:
So simplistic, yet so powerful. Think of it as a mulligan for your iPod. Imagine how nice it would be to have a "do-over" available; the ability to reset after some awful experience. Let that be our thought for this New Year’s Day. A fresh start; a proverbial reset button.
Lawson and iPods. Not much overlap, I suppose. Check out:

Funny enough, though, I always listen to my iPod while working on Lawson.
Lawson, all major software for that matter, needs Apple’s Time Capsule.
I would love to revert back easily to previous version when a newly install patch breaks other things!!
Maybe Apple will buy Lawson, they already have similar commercials! 🙂
BTW, kids aren’t the only ones that washes their iPod………..
