this could be the most fun game ever made. it’s complete crack.

so Microsoft Vista launched to consumers 2 weeks ago, to lukewarm reviews and pretty meager sales. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer warned investors to “not get too excited” over Vista sales, and also blamed low sales on piracy. I have it installed, and though it looks pretty good, there’s nothing too great about it…it’s mostly annoying the way it prompts me to approve every little thing I try to do.

anyways, Apple is gearing up for a big assault. the Mac rumors are heating up, as all signs are pointing to some big announcements in the coming weeks/months:

• first, there were no Mac announcements at MacWorld in January - it was all iPhone. so Mac stuff is overdue.
• the next update to OS X, Leopard, is expected at the end of March. iLife ‘07 and iWork ‘07 should launch alongside it.
• the Mac Pro is due for a refresh, expected to come with 8 CPU cores (2 x quad-core CPUs)
• iMac and Mac Mini also ready for updates
• Adobe is finally releasing Creative Suite & Photoshop as Intel-native apps

…a black iMac in the works, perhaps?

don’t know where to have lunch? no prob, just spin the wheel of food. it actually works with any search via yahoo local - just change the search term.

clever site. simple, small, easy-to-maintain…and i bet it gets tons of traffic! probably makes some nice change from the google ads:

we celebrated our 3 yr anniversary, each of us planning a night out.

my evening was quite the cultured, mature event. i took us to see Heartbeat, an “action-musical” with chinese performers doing dance, martial arts, and heavy emphasis on drums. followed by dinner at Chez Maman, a great little Potrero Hill restaurant.

Amo’s night out was, well, booze & trannies at AsiaSF.
