Blah look. Blah blog. Blah blah.

Friday, November 18th, 2005

I really need to do something about this half completed layout change for this blog. I'm really starting to grow tired of the colors and fonts. I also should really look into upgrading this ass-old version of MT, or look at some other blogging software like WordPress. Blah. So much to do, so little time... especially ...

Need permanent Dvorak layout on PowerBook!

Tuesday, November 15th, 2005

I started learning/typing the Dvorak layout about 6 months ago. I've gotten pretty decent at it - at least as good as someone that needs to switch between Dvorak and Qwerty on an irregular basis. It was a pretty straight-forward switch-over - at the time, I was typing, predominantly, on FingerWorks ...

Wednesday, May 4th, 2005

Well, spoke a bit too soon about . Yes, it does work, if you remove your existing plist, and then start the app. No, the app will not restart after you have quit it, until you have removed the plist and started over again. I had a feeling this situation would pop up. ...

Still waiting on Nortel VPN client for Tiger

After reading that, I had to ...

Holding off on Tiger

Saturday, April 30th, 2005

After reading some of the Tiger compatiblility pages that have popped up, and doing a little research related to other comments from other friends, there are a couple of applications that don't currently work with Tiger, and I ...

Tiger, less than 24 hours!

Friday, April 29th, 2005

Ok, I'm a total geek, but this isn't news to anyone who knows me. I've already planned, with my GF to be at the local Apple B&M around 7PM, tomorrow (today), April 29, to stand in line to purchase Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger. I also hope to be able to ...

Giving Quicksilver a Try

Wednesday, February 23rd, 2005

So, after using LaunchBar for quite a while, I noticed that my girlfriend was using Quicksilver on her iBook a few weeks ago. As I look over her shoulder, I notice that it seems a bit more polished than when I first heard of it, about a year ago. So, ...

Firefox 1.0 goofiness on my TiBook

Thursday, November 11th, 2004

Ok, this is kinda strange. I finally got to downloading firefox 1.0 for OSX, last night. Copied the .app over to my /Applications folder. Dragged a shortcut to my Dock, and started it up. It seemed to work fine. So I made a few changes to the toolbar and then found ...
