I've been setting up this blog over the last week, and one of the items I've been working on is a simple port of the Hemingway Theme for the Graffiti CMS . Now it's ready to go, so please enjoy. Please share any feedback with me - email rburte {my puzzle against spam bots = cat minus the sea = number8wire = dot = com} Update 17 December, 2008: I got some good feedback, and have fixed a bug found by Mark Voermans that he pinged me about on Twitter .
Just over a week ago I picked up an HP Mini 1000 netbook from Costco. I was looking to get a laptop so Keri could reclaim her MacBook that I’d borrowed to work on for my new contract. So a week of use so far and here are the top points. Pros: Great keyboard. Good feel and great size. Super-crisp screen. Powerful enough for internet browsing, Office 2007, RAS, remote desktop. Homebrew upgrade to 2Gb ram was trivial. Attractive design, with attractive touches. Much better battery life than the MacBook. Great value. Cons: No Bluetooth in the Costco in-store version. You can custom build on-line though
