Xbox 360 and HFS+

25 12 2006

Okay so, one day while I’m cooking, I feel like listening to some music. So I grab my external Lacie harddrive(that has all my music and stuff backed up onto it), and I plug into the front of my Xbox 360 and I start playing my music off it. Later on, I realized that I had formatted my external drive to the Apple HFS+ format so I could store files that were over 4 gigs.



Adobe Photoshop CS3 Beta Released

15 12 2006

So yeah, as the title says, the CS3 Beta of Photoshop came out today from Adobe Labs, and I am liking what I have seen so far just from giving it a test run. I have an Intel iMac, so I was quite excited to have a Universal Binary version of Photoshop.

It runs a hell of lot faster then CS2 running in Rosetta. My only complaint right now is the new logo. Its just too plain and dull for a program like Photoshop. Its just a blue gradient box with the letters “Ps” on the inside. I don’t know if its the final version of it, but it is looking that way right now. Anyways, I’m still looking forward to when the final release of CS3 comes out, which is scheduled for sometime in Spring 2007.



The Wonderous Night Sky

9 12 2006

So I just got home from my first ever NASA Space Shuttle launch. It was just an amazing sight to behold. This launch was also the first to occur at night in nearly 4 years if I remember correctly. The drive there wasn’t too bad. Took about 35 to 40 minutes.

As I got closer and closer to the coast, the night sky became clearer and clearer, and I could once again see the beautiful starry night that I missed so. Feels like it has been ages since I have seen such a clear sky and actually been able to fully see the night sky and the stars above. Its such a wonder to see.



New Web Site Up and Running

8 12 2006

So, here we are with my brand new website layout and design. It is still in the works at the moment while I get all the content created for each page and work out any bugs that I find. For now, I have my blog up and running and my “About Me” page up. Please feel free to leave feedback or ask questions about my new site.
