3:42 AM - Theme work

I've been trying to make right aligned menus work. Theme 14 is the black theme with right menus. There are a number of problems including a really bad reaction to clicking the subscribe to blog link. I may need to switch to a drop down or use a third party library. I'm very unhappy with the positioning problems.

3:47 AM - (no subject)

I finished installing Windows ME on that old computer. I attempted to load Windows XP, but it crashed during the setup process. I was suspect of Microsoft's minimum system requirements. 64MB of ram for XP seems way to low. It got pretty far in the process. I think the shared memory for the video card was the clincher. I did get Firefox 2 working in WinME and Lotus Smartsuite. I've got a disk that came with my laptop I'm not using. I used to love SmartSuite. i wish IBM would have kept up with it. A Mac version would have been nice too. Anyway, that old computer is still humming loudly. It ran Windows ME rather quickly. Until I installed the IE6 service pack it was very quick. I think Microsoft started using more DirectX crap in that release or something.

3:50 AM - WWDC 2007 Keynote

I watched most of Apple's keynote. I couldn't stand to watch the iPhone stuff at the end. Developing AJAX stuff isn't the same as Cocoa apps. That was very insulting to developers.

OS X has a few nice features coming up. I'm still not sure about the Vista style Finder with iTunes flipping crap. It looks like they tried to make the whole thing iTunes like. I guess if you already know how to use iTunes its not terrible, but its not a good application in terms of usability. It is not NeXT like by any means.

I wish they would have talked about server a little bit. That effects me quite a bit.

3:49 PM - Adventure of the day

I went to Meijers today. As I was entering, a police officer was remvoing a suspect in hand cuffs. The guy was kind of fighting him a bit. I don't know what happened but it looked like it might be shop lifting related. A few people turned around, got back in their cars and left. LOL
