I am officially Jaguar-ed. So far, so good. I will recommend to you folks out there who have not installed it yet, to use the Archive and Install option… it’s a new install option that archives everything from your previous system (assuming you are running OS 10.x already)… very handy.
Also, refer to this sidebar from the current MacWorld mag Migrate to Jaguar with a Clean Install. There’s more info at this link than in the printed mag.
I’ve spent almost the whole afternoon tinkering with this OS. Me likey.
Now… to .Mac… or not to .Mac?

This is the last weekend of the Lost Spacecraft exhibit at the Chabot Space & Science Center… featuring the Liberty Bell 7 spacecraft that sunk to the bottom of the sea in 1961.
Looks to be really cool. Does anyone remember when the craft was recovered in 1999?

I found my copy of Jaguar at the door when I got home today. Glee!
I need a big chunk of time to spend with my computers to get this installed… can’t do it tonight, cos that’s not enough time. Can’t do it tomorrow, cos I’ll be at Seybold. Oh, the agony.

So, as promised, I spent most of today at the California Extreme Gaming Show… as a geek *should*. I wore my “wizard needs food badly” t-shirt, of course. The ratio of men to women was staggering, naturally… but I felt perfectly comfortable whooping their butts in Warlords, hee hee! 
They had live projections of Dragon’s Lair and various vector games on the convention hall’s wall. Too awesome.
I played a lot of Pinball. Where else are you going to get this much pinball in one place? I took full advantage of it, and played almost every one of ‘em. I played a few good games of Revenge from Mars with Mish, and I got a decent score of about 91,000,000!
Loren was there too, and he bought a game cabinet to start on his MAME project. Wish I had enough money to buy a game… but then I’d hafta toil over *which* one, such a hard decision!
Unfortunately, I did not have a digital camera on hand, and chanced lugging around my Nikon SLR. I only took 10 pictures. Whoops. My hands were full playing games, anyways. What a good way to spend a Sunday.

dammit, dammit, dammit.
WizKids has released the MechWarrior: Dark Age sets. Just look at this thing… It’s bad ass.
Dammit.
Can anyone open up and BIGGER hole to pour my money into?
