Tami’s friends gathered at the Yank Sing restaurant in Downtown San Francisco. Apparently, this is a very popular dim sum restaurant, though I have never heard about it until now. They sell these glass teapots which are completely transparent — their claim to fame, I guess. The food was actually…

John Siracusa is at it again, this time with his 20 page review of Tiger, the latest version of Mac OS X. Siracusa always does a good job of making the complex easy to understand. I’m looking forward to using Tiger on my computer. With the announcement of the new…

Some time ago, I had to transfer files from an old PowerBook 180 to my PowerMac. At first I thought that I was out of luck, because I had no machine which could read floppy disks anymore (I had sold my Twentieth Anniversary Macintosh a year ago). Although I found…
