Bought some cool new duds yesterday for the big gig. Perhaps someone will bring a camera and take some good pictures. Also, I delivered Mom her new computer yesterday and took down the vintage 1997 Gateway POS she was running. I’m sure we can find a service to which she …
Here is a fantastic article on why software patents are mostly unnecessary, and why they stifle innovation. Worth a read! So Mom’s new computer is a doozy. It’s a really sleek case with one of those pimped-out LED fans on the side (and a clear cutout to see the innards …
Yo, built a nice computer for my moms tonight. You can peep it tomorrow after I get some time for snapping digital pictures. Off to bed since I have an early call for rehearsal tomorrow.
