| Radio Bump Reply Hazy, try again.  Tuesday, November 6, 2001On a similar subject. I ordered DSL on August 24th. Bellsouth turned on the line on September 10th. Today is November 6th. I still don't have the equipment from Earthlink. The last time I called (last week), they said that September 11th had screwed up their ordering system and that it should ship out immediately. Yeah right. Did I mention that it's November 6th? 6:38:19 PM
 discuss [] I have been using Mac OS X on my Mac laptop since August when it returned from its magical journey into the netherworld.(I really need to write up the whole saga of my hotel theft and how it ended up getting resolved.) Today, for the first time in ages, I booted the machine into Mac OS 9 to use a USB device that has no OS X drivers. Mac OS 9 now feels old fashioned to me. It's slower, by far, on the same hardware. Things crash, something that just doesn't happen to me on X. Networking is not really as robust or as fast. It's interesting how accustomed to a new technology you can become in two plus months. 6:34:57 PM
discuss [] Ars Technica: The State of Transmeta. I think that it's interesting, or at least worth noting, that there has been a shift in this industry due to the dominance of some key players in each market segment. Emerging companies, to some extent, can at best get the big players to take notice of what they are doing and get the big players to shift their strategy to encompass what the emerging company is doing. We heard so much about Transmeta, partly because of Linus Torvalds' involvement, and how it was going to cause innovation in the portable space. We saw Intel have to up their pace of innovation briefly in order to head this off. So, in effect, they did cause innovation in the portable space. 6:19:24 PM
