Hell Freezes Over – Again! Apple launch 2 button mouse

August 2, 2005 on 5:29 pm | In Gadgets | 4 Comments

Yes, Apple now has a two button mouse for sale!

Sadly, they don’t have the Bluetooth version yet :-( Due to my inherent
hatred of cables on the desktop, I’ll have to wait until that comes
out, then I can retire my wireless Microsoft mouse – which never sat
well with the mac really. Perhaps I’ll use the old wireless mouse in my
crazy mac mod
instead?

Drat!

P.S. bonus points to anyone who remembers the last time “Hell Froze Over” in the Mac world. Anyone?

The Mighty Boosh! Now Online…

It’s on tonight at 11pm on BBC 3 but if you only have “Poor man’s telly” as my workmates put it, you can see it online right now

Well done to the beeb for putting brand new comedy onto the interweb!

2Mbits at last!

August 2, 2005 on 10:01 am | In Madness | 2 Comments

Our net connection at home is from the quite lovely plus.net people,
who have been gradually going around upgrading people for free to 2Mbit
(from the 0.5Mbit I’ve been on previously).

Well, last night, after hearing of even more delays on the BT end, I
snapped and ordered an account change to get an immediate re-grade. It
cost a trifling amount, but I was very pleased to see in the morning
that a mighty 2Mbit pipe had been attached to the other end of my ADSL
modem. Hooray!!!

Weirdly though, it seems even faster than
the four times it should be… My iTunes Podcasts downloaded extrememly
quickly, where before I had to basically remember to do it the night
before. Oh well, I’m certainly not complaining!
