London, iPods, Panther
I've been traveling most of the last week — spent two days in Budapest at first, then went to London. Tough — quite a bit of travel and I am feeling a bit tired as I write this entry at 1am on Sunday morning.
The reason for staying up late (I’ve landed around 9pm Sat) is generally due to two items: I’ve finally gotten my hands onto Panther and I’ve bought iLife. There is not really too much to say yet, except that upgarde seems to have gone smoothly (knocks on wooden floor). The look is, indeed, much more subtle and soft. I really love Expose — makes switching actually even easier than Alt-Tabbing Windows-way. Otherwise — it is too early (or late? I’m condused...) to say much.
I have not bought iLife for GarageBand, as a lot of other people around the net seem to claim. My two unsuccessful attempts to muster a guitar in the past has pretty much laid it out for me loud and clear that this is not something I can do well (if at all). No, in m y case it is iMovie and iDVD I was interested in. Again — more later (so far I’ve spotted only a few Title effects (in particular — Star Wars-style “A long-long time ago, in a Galaxy far, far away.”
One thing that impressed (?) me a lot while in London, was a number of people carrying iPods. It seemed like they were everywhere. It was very tempting to pick up one, but I managed to resist the temptation (for how long I wonder). Incidentally, I came across another gadget trying out my will: Palm’s Tungsten T3 PDA. It is a beauty, really. Feels like it really is time to replace my old Palm IIIx...
