Good, bad, indifferent

Well, I had a nasty surprise this morning, when I went out to my car to go to work. Someone had stolen the driver side front wheel! Grrr!!! I had to go to work, so I borrowed Jos's scooter for my ride. It was a nice ride. I'll be glad when we get the one we bought for me fixed. I'll probably keep the car. Jos put the donut spare on, and bought some locking lug nuts. We'll have to go get a new wheel tomorrow. or Tuesday.

I got a new state hit today. Hawaii! The 2nd furthest traveled of my bills. The furthest is one that made it to Poland.

Collectorz.com finally came out with the Mac version of Book Collector.

Having some issues with my iBook... It's been freezing up lately, and crashing. I'm going to take it into the Apple store tomorrow I think.

Ouch. That sucks, Vik. At least they didn't tear up anything else. *snug*

Yeah, getting your stuff stolen always blows. Especially when it's something vital. Though, scooters are a good time. *snickers* I've ridden a couple of them in my time, wouldn't mind having one, but depending on where I was down here, there's times of the year that it'd be useless. The cold season in FL isn't too cold really, but the wet season I'd get soaked.
I recently took OS X off my iMac and put Fedora Core 5 for PPC on it. I found that it seemed to do a LOT better on there. Your milage may very ofcorse, but I'm honestly not all that thrilled with OS X. It gained stability with it's new BSDesque core, but at the same time, it can't do as much as a good Linux system, and it gained all the weaknesses and incompatibilities that it's Unix Brothern have. I origonally got it because I thought it would be the ultimate blending between a clean easy to use GUI, and Unix command line that I wanted to find. But it kinda' falls short on both ends for me. Eh, I know you've at least flirted with Linux before, it might not be the answer to your problem, butit might be an idea. :)
