I swear an iMac can turn any room into the hottest room in a house!

Does it keep your room warm enough during the wintertime? :p

My room is on the corner of the house, so during the wintertime, since I have two drafty windows, that pretty much cancels out the heat the iMac gives off. ><

Seems weird having a cloudy day in the lower 70s after a couple weeks of a heat wave.

Just been on the iFixit site and the server was down, there was scrolling text underneath a maintenance message that said the following: (p.s this did make me laugh and gave me the lift I needed today ;) )

Sorry. They've promised me they're working on it.
The techies, I mean.
I'm sure they'll have me fixed soon.
While you wait, though, I have some suggestions for you.
First, take a deep breath.
Feel better?
Good.
Now.
You're here because you broke something, right?
And I want to help you fix it.
But first, a word of wisdom:
Be more careful!
If you hadn't broken...
Well, whatever it is you've broken...
We wouldn't be in this pickle, would we?
And you've caught me at such a bad time, too.
You see, my servers aren't working either.
But once I'm back on my feet, I'll show you how to take apart whatever it is you broke.
And because I like you, I'll also help you put it back together.
Free!
The best things in life are free, aren't they?
Except Doritos.
Mmmm... Doritos.
::crunch::
::crunch::
Sometimes I can't help myself.
::crunch::
The MSG, you know.
The techies say it's bad for me.
Crumbs in the fans, and so on.
I don't care.
::crunch::
They're MY fans, aren't they?
I'd like to see them serve up ONE page.
Just one.
::crunch::
Maybe then they'd see how much work it is.
::crunch::
It's tiring. Anyone would make mistakes.
::crunch::
So I spilled some soda and lost a few chips in the works.
These things happen.
::crunch::
Right?

Hi guys. Just wanted to say that I won't be around as much from now, as I have changed job position at work and now work "normal" hours, rather than silly early hours.
I'll still pop in daily, just won't be posting as much.

Lion

D Travis,
I was just playing around with Lion. I must say I am pretty impressed with what I've seen so far, but needless to say I have only skimmed the surface!

Anyone else here really miss the Intro video? I seem to have an obsession with those videos, but I didn't realise that until there wasn't one with Lion ;)
