Corinne came home from a cat show in Southbury, CT, today (she was only gone last night). Anyway, it took me longer to switch her Windows 98 laptop's TCP/IP connections back to the right settings (to work correctly on our home LAN) than it did to intall OS X!

This was much easier than I expected it to be.

Except for the fact that my Kensington TurboBall doesn't feel the same under OS X as it did under 9, this has been totally painless and trouble free.

Now to go find Mozilla... and to install the Developer Tools... and um... play. More.

Oh wait, my first reaction. It was, "Ooooh! Pretty!" :-)

I mentioned a few weeks ago that a customer ordered a copy of Mac OSX for me, as a bonus for some work I did for him.

Unfortunately, Apple didn't have any copies in stock, so it didn't ship, and it didn't ship, and it didn't ship. Finally, on Wednesday, we heard that it was being shipped out.

So where was it?

Apple included the tracking number in the email that said it had shipped. I went to FedEx to track the shipment, hoping that since it hadn't arrived Friday that they'd at least deliver it on Monday.

Hmm. I guess I'm a dope.

Yep, they were right. There it was, sitting at my front door, shivering in the cold. What a knucklehead.
