I've been programming all too much lately and I've got to be up in 5 hours to drive up to NY so to bed I go.
I can't believe I get to see her in less than 24 hours, it's a surreal feeling. It's weird, before I met Vinney the only thing that would make me happy was work, oh how things have changed :)
Goodnight everyone, I'll be in NY and then New Haven until next weekend but I'll have net access so you should continue to hear from me. And for those of you that are waiting, there are more Macdates coming as well. My month with a Mac is over, but what's next...? I hate waiting in suspense, and you'd think that I wouldn't wish that upon anyone else...but I've got to have a little fun :)

March 5, 2004 - Apple released another pre-release seed of Mac OS X 10.3.3 this week, posting build 7F38 late Thursday, sources saidThe latest developer build is Apple's fourth widespread seed of the Panther update. The seed note provided to testers was nearly identical to Apple's documentation of the previous seed, build 7F34, which the company released last week. Apple listed the same areas of change and testing suggestions, and again identified only one "known issue": that the Knowledge Base article referenced in the update's read me is a placeholder and is not online yet.
The lack of changes suggests that Version 10.3.3 is nearing public release. Sources said that the updater weighs in at just under 70MB in size.
Last week's 7F34 was preceded by builds 7F32 and 7F24; the latter was pulled due to a bug when used with the 20-inch iMac.

MACS SUCK NO MORE MAC TALKS!maxplanar - Friday, March 5, 2004 - link
Please continue with your Mac investigations - you make a good and clear voice, something the entire PC and Mac-owning community needs. And I'm fascinated to see what you enjoy and don't enjoy about Macs.KingoftheBritons - Friday, March 5, 2004 - link
Programming sans sleep, huh? I know the feeling all too well...Anonymous - Friday, March 5, 2004 - link
Gino,I think Anand said he plugged in his PC USB mouse into the Mac and reported it worked perfectly, including the scroll wheel. OS X has native support for scroll wheels and 2-button (and more) mice.
On both my Macs and PCs, I ditched the 2-button mouse that came with them and got a "real mouse", a Logtech MX 700.

PS i don't know if you have taken any classes on it, if so please disregard my last messagemsva123 - Friday, March 5, 2004 - link
I noticed you are becoming a programmer. Please, please read a few books about user interface design. If you have sloppiest code in the world yet a good user interface, you will be doing better than 75% of the developers out there.http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0789...

Looking at your website you seem to have a pretty good handle on it, but a little more reading can't hurt.

While not a close personal friend to most of us, we sure feel like it...i feel like i've 'grown up' on anandtech. It has been precisely that with at least my 'tech growth' (-: It may seem odd, but that's what makes this a community.Gino - Friday, March 5, 2004 - link
I can't believe it has been a month already. Before the Macdates end, we need to hear about MSOffice--is it a good product on the Mac? Do you like the keyboard? Can you live without a scroll mouse?Does your G5 chirp? http://www.arstechnica.com/wankerdesk/04q1/g5-nois...
Are two processors really better than one?
And what will I do when the Macdates end?

i've been following these macdates for a month and it almost scares me how people talk like anand is their close personal friend.anyway anand good macdates. hope you enjoyed your G5 time. i think you'll find going back to XP affects your work flow but perhaps not as you have been using your laptop (XP right?) as well.
