Updates and MacWorld

Sunday, January 09, 2005

It’s slow on this site mostly because 1) this is an experiment to see if I even care to blog, and 2) I sold the old home laptop and I’m waiting for MacWorld before making a decision on a new home computer.

I won’t have another PC in my house - game over on Windows. I work on them all day and I don’t want to be come tech support at home, so now with OS X it’s all Macs at home. The first update will be a new portable and later on in the year I hope to either add a Dual-G5 or, ahem - this is a big “or” - an xServe.

(Yeah, I could run Linux - I’ve done that under Suse and RedHat before on my Sun 5s and the old Pentium II, but now I tend to want to simplify my systems and that means OS X full-time. I just want it to work…Of course, I’m always open to new ideas—and if anyone wants to donate to the “educational fund”, please do.)

But the rumors of MacWorld’s headless Mac systems, home PVRs, new hardware and software makes one just want to wait a little bit more. I’ve got an eye on a new iBook, but the 32MB vram seems a little low when you consider the 64MB video requirements for Tiger…I’m hoping for a slight update on the iBooks.
