The Design and Implementation of laffer1

Ordered my books for my Operating Systems class. One will get here tomorrow and the other a few days later. I also ordered visual studio 2005 standard upgrade and a unix programming book. I think the book might be quite useful to me this semester. Visual studio should allow me to upgrade my jj client code :)

The apple store is down right now while they role the new products. Thinking about it 9am is like 3 hours behind in cali so its like right now. Jobs might be starting his keynote. macworld's web server was giving me 403 errors.. :)

My first class went ok aside from not knowing who to partner with. I'll start downloading redhat in a little bit.

Apple keynote day.. wonder what we'll get on the mac camp. :)

I'm downloading redhat EL WS 4.0 right now (release 2). I'll install that tonight if possible and see if i can get a kernel compile setup. If not, i'll have to use gentoo. Its the only other linux distro i'm rather familiar with.

AMD is no longer number one in terms of speed.

Two new macs.. imac core duo and macbook pro.. (powerbook with intel chip)

Apple kept their ppc line intact for the most part though. They just added intel boxes. (expensive ones at that)

The new intel macs pown! fucking dual core laptop! 1.6 or 1.8 ghz dual intel with a fucking ati pci express video card and a built in iSight (webcam). Its got fucking bluetooth, usb2, firewire 400, digital audio out, full light keyboard, 5400 rpm drive, DDR2 ram!!!!!!!!!!!

The iMac powns too! dual 2 ghz wow.... both have a fucking remote!

On the financial front, Job's surprised Wall Street by announcing that 14 million iPods were sold during the holiday quarter. Revenue in that three-month period came in at $5.7 billion, trumping the $5.04 billion analysts polled by Thomson First Call were expecting.

I've got ilife and iwork ordered from apple. That will be nice. iApps pown :)

Apple introduced SNL classic clips on iTunes today. They have several of the best of videos and tv shows.
