Under $1000? For a Sun workstation?

After practically writing these guys off for dead I am eating crow. If they market this thing right they could have a win. Personally I would want to play around with the new Solaris 10 OS before buying into it but wow, very good specs on that box, and you can always run Gentoo or even windows.

Wired has a great editorial outlining the legislative points that Congress could undertake to help the problem of identity theft. Its a good list. I would hope they would also add a provision that makes creditors liable for incorrect or bad information that they submit to the credit reporting agencies. (via Schneier)

Today we are going to Kings Island to celebrate the momentous occasion that is the 7th birthday. I’m sure there will be plenty of pictures in the Photo Blog ->

Yoz Grahame describes Steve Jobs’ keynote speeches:

I’ve been watching them since he returned to Apple in 1997, despite the fact that I’ve never owned any Apple gear. I know I’m not the only one hypnotically drawn to his performances. I’m a Windows user, but I don’t watch video presentations from Bill Gates (well, not often) or Andy Grove.

Whether you love or hate Apple and its products (personally, I’m all over the map on that one) you can’t deny that Jobs is a demo master. There are few better examples of technology theatre than one of his keynotes.

I couldn’t agree more.
