3 of 4

Wow, got most of it done and its just saturday. The room has much less random pieces of paper laying around (thanks to my filling box), the farmer’s market was so-so but not super (the Rainbow co-op is better), and the Heats vs Pistons game was a blow-out (I’m really looking forward to a Detroit […]

Planned Obsolesense

c|net is running an article claiming that Apple is moving to Intel chips… If it’s really true, what does it mean about my brand new laptop? Does it mean in less than 2 years, nobody will be writing new apps for it? I can’t imagine most development houses are going to like developing for two […]

The mystery continues

Upon quick reflection, it looks like Apple totally screwed up my original order. I had wanted a 15 inch PB with 512MB and English OS X and the 128mb vram card. What I got was a non-functinoal 15 inch PB with two 512MB sticks and a Japanese version of OS X. Who knows if it […]
