I’ve been doing this series of posts about setting up Docker for your desktop system, so why not literally add containers to your desktop! The way we have Docker configured, containers are the same as other applications you run. In this post I’ll show you how to add icons and menu items to launch containers.

Premiere Pro CC 2017 NVIDIA Quadro (Pascal) Performance
The latest video cards often get a lot of press, but unfortunately for content creators (and other professionals), NVIDIA’s Quadro cards tend to be largely ignored by many PC hardware reviewers. In this article we will be looking at a range of NVIDIA Quadro Pascal video cards to see how they perform in Premiere Pro CC 2017.

Dear Microsoft
Dear Microsoft,
Windows and I go back a lot of years together. Too many to count, but let’s just say my first PC gave me the choice to login to Windows 3.11 or MS-DOS. While our relationship has been mostly great (XP, 7), it’s also been bumpy (ME, Vista) at times. But I’ve stuck with Windows as my primary computing platform because it’s versatile, familiar and supports the programs I rely on each day.
TitanXp vs GTX1080Ti for Machine Learning
NVIDIA has released the Titan Xp which is an update to the Titan X Pascal (they both use the Pascal GPU core). They also recently released the GTX1080Ti which proved to be every bit as good at the Titan X Pascal but at a much lower price. The new Titan Xp does offer better performance and is currently their fastest GeForce card. How much faster? I decided to find out by running a large Deep Learning image classification job to see how it performs for GPU accelerated Machine Learning.

Adobe Photoshop CC 2017 Mac Pro vs PC Performance
A Mac Pro is not be best choice for Photoshop (even among Apple’s offerings), but there are a number of users who use Photoshop as a secondary application in their workflow. In this article we will be examining how the top-end Mac Pro (late 2013) compares to two of our workstations.

Should you use a Dual Xeon for Premiere Pro CC 2017?
Dual Xeon workstations are often viewed as powerhouses that can churn through anything you throw at them. With recent changes in both hardware and software, however, it is actually faster and cheaper to use a single CPU workstation. In this article we will look at a number of single and dual CPU setups to show the real-world performance difference in Premiere Pro.

Premiere Pro CC 2017 NVIDIA Titan Xp 12GB Performance
The latest video cards often get a lot of press, but unfortunately for content creators (and other professionals), it is almost impossible to find any non-gaming benchmarks. In this article we will be looking at the Titan Xp to see how it perform compared to the GTX 1080 ti and previous Titan X video cards in Premiere Pro CC 2017.
Thunderbolt with PCs
We have recently an influx of Mac users wanting to migrate to PC but they generally have a few concerns. The first is having to learn Windows. The other is having Thunderbolt support. Let’s see how we address those issues.
Docker and Nvidia-Docker on your workstation: Common Docker Commands Tutorial
Docker can be complex but for use on single-user-workstation you can get a lot done with just a few commands. This post will go through some commands to manage your images and containers. We will also go through the process of building a docker image for CUDA development that includes OpenGl support.
