Can’t wait to go home and see this, cause quicktime on the windows machine at work keeps crashing. Stupid windows.

¼ of a Century

My face with cake

Today is the day that I turn 25, there is already ¼ of a century on my back, and a pice of cake on my face as you can see from the picture.

Last night some friends came over and we had a small party, enjoying our self’s. I got the “traditional” cake in the face for my first time. Overall the party was a success and we had lots and lots of fun.

The strange think is that I don’t feel any older but I’ve already gone through ¼ of a century and if I was born some years back it would be expected from my to already have a family. I am really glad I wasn’t though :D.

On another note, on Friday my PowerBooks also had it’s 1st Birthday, since I got a rather cold August morning 1 year and 2 days ago, when I was in the UK. So Happy Birthday to Me and my PowerBook.

XP on Mactel: The Movie

The infamous narf2006 has made good on his earlier promise to provide a video of Windows XP booting on an Intel-based iMac. You can Watch the video or read about the contest.

If this is legit, I know a lot of people will love to get both windows and mac os x on their computers or just have that nice looking apple hardware running windows.

Let me know what you think, is this legit or not?

Update: The contest has been won - updates to follow shortly. All further donations will go into an account to sustain the open source project that will be launched with the initial solution.
