A month with Leopard

I finally got Leopard setup on my PowerBook. So far so good. I went out on a limb and decided not to do a fresh install. I would never have done that on windows. Oddly enough everything works. Everything but UNO, but I don’t really need to use it because Leopard has a unified theme. [...]

Finally Adium for Windows…

UPDATE: I revisited this article in my new post over here. I run all the big three operating systems. I’ve had experience with most of the respective instant messaging clients, AIM, Trillian, Kopete, Pidgen, iChat and Adium, etc. Adium was by far the best because it offers so much customization.

It’s a 2005 Impala with Onstar, CD player, cruise, a pretty standard package. Since today is Fathers Day I decided that it [...]

Well, its been a while. I can only blame myself for the lack of updates, I’ve been busy with school, I haven’t been posting pictures to flickr, I haven’t really even been working on any of the little side projects I’d mentioned in earlier posts.
