Three posters designed by Rich Silverstein. “Here is my thinking,” Silverstein said, “What if we could TiVo the last six-plus years and play them back – without comment — for the American people, and let them connect the dots? It’s not a pretty picture.” Click on the images to see them full size. Print them out and put them everywhere.
Although I think this is plenty to think about It was easy to come up with more.

Updated my macbook pro to leopard this past week. I had heard that the update 10.5.1 was on its way. This was reassurance considering some finder copying dataloss.
I backed up the whole dang drive. Just being safe. Ready to go.
I have been looking forward to this update; not for all the eye candy or new features. I have been looking forward to performance enhancements and I was not disappointed. I feel like I have a new machine. Spotlight rocks. I actually don’t need Launchbar or quicksilver to launch applications or find files. Very fast. Very sweet.
I keep my dock on the side so I don’t have to endure the “glassy dock shelf” or springing stacks. I do dig the icon view when expanding a folder. I got rid of the desktop as quick as I could. I’m not interested in the time machine look.
I dig the sidebar and how the groups have been named devices, shared, places, and search for. expanding and collapsing the groups is handy.
Shared devices and network items just show up in the bar. Excellent.
That’s it so far. More to come.

Just last week I took a trip to the local Apple store. I had made up my mind to get a new wireless keyboard. A friend and colleague had purchased the full size keyboard and I tried it out. But it was time to go wireless and to dump the number pad which I almost never use. I wanted to get back some desk space.
Boy did I get back some deskspace.
The keyboard is the same size as the one in my macbook pro but response of the keys is much better than expected. Being wireless is new found freedom. It’s a great design detail how the batteries load into the top of the keyboard. even with the batteries the keyboard is incredibly light.
I do miss the apple key.
I also bought the wireless mighty mouse. I’ve loved that mouse from the beginning.
