I got off to a late start this morning, prompting me to swing by Tokyo Deli for takeout. I am spoiled by living so damn close, but it was unexpectedly packed for lunch. I was near the front when the real crowd arrived, and managed to make my escape while the couple that owns the place began furiously sushi'ing for what looked like the entire staff of the adjacent dmv. I guess lunch is a bad time to renew your license.

While I waited, a barechested fellow made his way behind the counter and passed my lunch over the four psuedo-goth kids crowded at the counter. Turns out, it was this guy, which made me chuckle. Nerds abound, evidently, and it looks like he's working on a new site for them.

Curtis recently contributed a receiver and speakers to the new apartment which, paired with an old boston woofer, are presently resonating pleasantly through the living room.

I've been delaying the inevitable purchase of a new laptop for quite some time, mostly in order to wait for apple to move on the powerbooks; the recent ibook and mac mini releases are very encouraging. I have grown attached to this little thinkpad (and its multiple mouse buttons), but I will be among the first to place an order when the new line is finally announced.

I have carefully weighed the decision. I have adored the OSX boxes i have worked with, and I have been impressed with the amount of thought that has seemingly gone into the development of the majority of apple hardware. If nothing else, it is not thought that is geared towards creating some Brazil future of corporate drone networking.

Also, the hardware is beautiful. Slot loading tablets of aluminum love.
