I'm planning on putting together a contact page and the like on my site, but I've gotten a little behind on it lately.
As for what I've been up to lately... beyond work, mostly Star Trek type of stuff (like
here,
here and
here).
I posted this else where in the last couple days, so I may as well post it here too...
I do plan on contacting Apple in the next month or so to see if I can start selling limited copies of Mac OS X Server 1.x. They made a deal like that for selling copies of NEXTSTEP 3.3 and OPENSTEP 4.2 back in 2001 with someone (which I'm also going to approach them about doing as well). I'm hoping for at least selling the stand-alone OS, but it would be nice to be able to include a limited WebObjects development/deployment license too (though I doubt I'd get that as it would compete directly with the current version of Mac OS X Server).
I figure I have a pretty good chance of getting Apple's blessing on NEXTSTEP 3.3, OPENSTEP 4.2 and Mac OS X Server 1.x, but I doubt they would be willing to do developer stuff as it wasn't originally meant for public consumption to begin with. I just have to make sure that I even have the ability to do any of that type of stuff before I ask to do it.

I am currently using three systems running Rhapsody...

- IBM ThinkPad 760 ED (running Rhapsody DR2)
I only just got the Wallstreet a couple weeks ago (and it really needs a new display to become a usable system), and the 8600 is one of my favorite systems to work on because I have two 17" displays on it.
Honestly, I haven't used the ThinkPad (running the second developer release) much in the last few years as most of the applications I use are PowerPC only and won't run on the developer releases.
Also the developer releases won't run on any of the iMacs... they were really designed for old world machines, and while Apple made a G3 patch for Rhapsody DR2, it was really only for the first beige G3s and the first PowerBook G3 (based on the PowerBook 3400c logic board and case).
