I passed the test. It's official. I'm not a complete dork. If I was, and the possibility was certainly there, I'd have left the lovely evening I was having with MB and Sarah to be at the Apple store by 10:20 last night when Jagwire (OS X 10.2) was released. Yes, they had a party. People in costumes. Probably posting to their blogs from the display machines. Supreme dork stuff like that.

Instead I resisted the mind control rays emanating from the mothership, and stayed up on the roof enjoying the perfect summer evening. Clam pasta, cuvee Buster, Texier hermitage (wine dork status might still be possible.)

Drinking coffee right now, and then I will make my way, calmly, like a normal person not caught in the RDF, over to SOHO and purchase my copy. No hurry. It's just an operating system. Not like it's going to be a big deal or anythi....

The Casio EX-S1 looks great. I like my Canon G1, but it is too big. If I was buying again I'd think seriously about this camera. It doesn't have the resolution, but it is supremely small. Here's the Steve's digicams review (here's the conclusion) and here's the dcresource review. Very cool. Still, my guess is that cameras will become a feature of cellphones (like the p800) soon enough, and that will be even cooler (always with you, plus you can upload pictures wirelessly right from the same device.)
