I’ve just been informed that due to new Federal Regulations, we might not be able to use the SLAC Orange Room for future COBA meetings. This puts me in a bind, as April 12 is the next scheduled COBA meeting, with photo recognition software company, Riya, as the featured presenter.…

I got an IM today from Nicolas asking me if I have checked out today’s entry on CrazyAppleRumors. Very funny! Newton 2100 And eMate 300 Declared “Obsolete” Shocking news hit the Newton-using community today as Apple quietly announced that the Newton 2100 and the eMate 300 were officially declared “obsolete.

Nowhere is state-of-the-art more apparent than in monitor design. Randy’s laptop backlight conked out of him the other day. To tide him over, he picked up a 21-inch NEC MultiSync XP21, a.k.a. the Andre the Giant of Monitors. Anyone know of a place that fixes backlights on a Dell Inspiron…

Rae was remarking that I bore a strong resemblance to the 9,400 year old Kennewick Man recreation gracing the cover of the current Time Magazine. Your thoughts? He was clearly right-handed: the bones of the right arm are markedly larger than those of the left. That’s true for me too,…

This weekend, we’re moving from Cupertino to our new house in Santa Clara. Over the years, I’ve accumulated a boat-load of junk. I’m trying to simplify my life according to Felix’s principles, but it’s difficult. Why in the world do I find myself insisting on keeping these things far beyond…

Continue reading →: Rekeying Locks
I spent yesterday afternoon and late evening rekeying several of the locks in the new house, and boy was it an interesting experience. I’ve dabbled with lock picking in the past — for educational purposes of course — but I have never rekeyed a lock before. While browsing the aisles…

Continue reading →: Origami Unwrapped
Microsoft took the wraps off of Origami today. News outlets are calling for a reality check. If people complained that the Newton was too big, wait till they get their hands on an Origami unit. It’s huge in those screenshots on the Microsoft website! The more I use the Treo…
