Here kitty kitty kitty

Yes I do still exist. (I have pictures to prove it)
and I thought you might want to hear my latest thoughts.
I have been really really busy,
and it's not really getting better.
but I guess it could be.
Anyway, I thought I would take this opportunity to tell you about our Halloween costumes.

I thought they were brilliant,
but...

I went as Steve Jobs.
(you know, the Apple guy -- black turtleneck and Jeans [really, google it if you want])
and Lydia went as Leopard, the new Mac OS. (OS 10.5))

It's really a sweet new system
but first heres a little pictureAs you may have noticed, we went for the black leopard look.

So what are people saying about Leopard?

After three intense days with Apple's Mac OS X Leopard... despite minor problems, it's by far the best operating system ever written for the vast majority of consumers, with dozens of new features that have real practical value—like truly automated backups, document and spreadsheet preview images in folders, and notes and to
-do lists integrated into the mail program. Propeller-heads with IT know-how will no doubt hold up Linux as the better choice, and Vista has its devotees as well... but, for the average user, Leopard is the most polished and easiest to use OS I've tested.... Leopard is far from perfect, but it's better than any alternative, and it's getting harder and harder to find good reasons to use anything else.
--- Edward Mendelson (PCmag.com)

the tide was turning in Apple's favor even before the launch of Leopard. That's because of Mac OS X' ease of use, lack of crapware, and stronger security. Now that Leopard is here, we predict that many more consumers will be making the jump to Apple

I'm either too lazy, or too busy,
but I just haven't had the time to do this that I would like.
so here is the first part of the post,
and this entry will be updated as I find time.

"I thought they were brilliant,

But...?

I don't get it either. But cute, and clever.

It's just that it went past so many people.
I expected a little more reaction I guess.
and so many people asked if I was Bill Gates?

warnser said...

yes and this was done before the split.

I think it's very clever, too. Too bad that you didn't get a better reaction.

It was good to see you this weekend. Thanks for letting us drop by. Hope you liked the cookies.

That's hilarious that people thought you were Bill Gates. Ha, ha.

Speaking of "the split"... do you plan to blog about "the split"? Inquiring minds want to know....

Okay, maybe I'm the only "inquiring mind"... I should just speak for myself. :)

warnser said...

you're actually not the only inquirée
However I don't have any plans to blog about it.

tearese said...

okay, yeah I was confused about the whole time-line of events there too. I think people didn't get the costumes because not everyone follows the computer world so closely as you do! (I wouldn't have got it either. Sorry.)

I'm tagging you to write seven interesting or weird things about yourself, if you want something to write.
