Argh! I've been 'borged' !

I've used a number of different computers for office applications over the years, usually a PC, but my travel machines have been Powerbooks until the year (2000) corporate policy dictated that I retire my Powerbook and start using a Thinkpad for EVERYTHING in my office. Not a bad machine but it doesn't have the appeal/class of a Powerbook. Too "boxy".

Last September, I finally got myself a new Apple laptop (an ibook) for personal use so that when I stop having a home office (any week now.... want to buy a log cabin in NH?) I'll still have a laptop at home even if my work laptop is in the office.

Well... it looks like my fingers have been permanently trained to find that pesky Start menu/task bar when I want to switch applications. The iBook was too late. I just tried to go to the bottom of the screen on my iBook to get to the pop-up menu.

But, this is Mac OS X and my "dock" is to the left where it belongs (I know Apple thinks it belongs at the bottom. They are wrong.)

Argh!!!!

XML = eXistential Markup Language ?

Starting to read up on XML for a number of work related reasons. Outputing XML appears fairly easy using our proprietary database tools (jdk sent me some examples this weekend. Cool :-)). We already output HTML in a similar fashion. Granted, inputting it will be a different kettle of fish. Going to be fun...
