At dinner the other night, my son told me that the Apocalypse was coming soon. Of course, I knew this since he gets his driver’s license this year – OK, maybe that’s just a parental apocalypse . . . He told me that it was far worse than that. And it made [...] I couldn’t let this one go by without some recognition. Either this guy is serious or it’s an elaborate hoax. Either way, it’s a hoot. If you’re interested in giving it a shot, though, check it out here. Well, my new 1.67GHz Core Duo Mac Mini arrived at my home yesterday. After making sure it booted right out of the box (it did), today was time to take it apart, take a look at its innards and upgrade the puny amount of memory that comes stock with the machine.

In Europe, the same thing will happen on May 4. [...] Last week I attended a seminar put on by Apple and Canon on Apple’s new Aperture product. Targeted at professional photographers, but clearly usable by advanced amateurs, Aperture appears to have the following functional goals: Handling of RAW files (non-compressed or processed pictures) Loads of printing options Project management Non-destructive image processing [...] I saw Monty Python’s SPAMalot this weekend. If you have ever even cracked a smile while watching Monty Python, you owe it to yourself to see it.
