So it would appear that I have not quite got back up to speed with the regular posting thing yet. So these are a few of the things that I would have covered had I been.

boot camp

Mac OSX Boot Camp Icon

Well I wasn’t expecting this (as it seems where very few other people). Also interesting to note that the new firmware upgrades should allow Vista to run if it ever when it is released. I wonder if MS are kicking themselves for sticking with BIOS and changing to EFI (the XP on Mac thing shows you can ‘fake’ BIOS with EFI, but not the other way round). Or you can run XP in a window instead.

 

Just one thing of note – over at the MacRumors pages, it is amazing how many die-hard Windows haters seem to have a copy of XP kicking around1.

new trick

Thanks for the comments on the new layout, though all credit to the original designer, I just brute-forced it from Typo to WP while mainlining pints of tea. Gordon wins the secret prize (I forgot the favicon had changed), so he gets a lovely pair of blue suede shrews… and the Googlebot is still banned, I might let it back in towards the end of the month, if it promises to be good.

climbing

Missed last week on leave and this week lacked any degree of strength or flexibility (or gravity had been increased in the Mosley area). Oddly there was someone who bore a striking resemblance to a bearded and slightly over weight Jean Reno in the pub afterwards.

and finally

I’ll stop playing with title tags now.

  1. Perhaps literally?
