Oooh, Fat Tire is really nice beer. I'd like to try their others, though.

vim also has online help, so something like: :help exit

WAY ahead of you, my friend! My bar at the corner just finally got in Corsendonk Pale Ale that I've been asking for for ages. Mmmmm....

In action. :)

I think this new 12" PB is fantastic. Very fast and very portable. But you're giving up screen real estate. It's all personal preference. If it's your main machine and you won't be taking it around a lot, maybe you should get the 15". I say go to an Apple Store if there's one near you, or...

Hey, I just got a new 12" PowerBook 1.33! I got it with the SuperDrive, 80-gig 5400 rpm drive, and just put 1 gig of RAM in to make it 1.25 gigs. Apple's on drugs for what they charge for RAM. I got 1 gig for less than they charge for 512 megs. Anyway, this machine is awesome. And I got a...

Depends on what hardware and what OS. In Windows NT/2K/XP there's Ctrl2Cap, which does just what I want, by remapping Caps Lock to Control and that's it. In OS X for USB keyboards there is built-in functionality to swap Caps Lock and Control. For the Powerbooks, though, the keyboard is ADB...

I am probably getting a new 12" PowerBook soon and always remap Caps Lock to Control. Only problem is that there's no way to disable the light on the Caps Lock key. Anyone know of any way to kill that light from coming on? Thanks.

That's a dual 867 though. I can't believe someone would pay near $1000 for an 867 when you can get a dual 1.8 G5 for $2k.

I'm thinking of selling my setup in order to get a 12" PowerBook. I'll probably wait until they come out with a backlit keyboard for it though. But, anyone know what I could get for my system? It's a Power Mac G4 867 (Quicksilver) with 896 megs of RAM and 2 60-gig drives inside. Perfect...

I'm around. I got an audio recording of the show. We did a really funny cover of Hungry Like The Wolf from Duran Duran. Here it is. :)

My band played another show last night, this time in Brooklyn. Pretty fun. I think the rest of them agreed that our first show was better, but I enjoyed this one more because I was much more relaxed; hardly nervous at all actually. Although, I couldn't hear myself, which was kind of...

When I was about 3 years old (about 1975), my cousin gave me The Originals, which was the first three Kiss albums in one set. It was missing Dressed To Kill, the third album, but I used to sit there in front of the stereo in the living room with Sony headphones bigger than my head, listening to...

Anyone know where I can find a free font that looks like this? I've looked around but can't find anything. I need it for one stupid little thing and am not paying $30 for that. Thanks.

Probably same deal as the M4Ps only being able to be played by iTunes or the iPod. Try to open them in any other player that supports AAC and they won't play.

And conversely, the iTMS now has an album for $16.99. What a joke. The physical (and uncompressed) CD is less expensive than that.

I second the suggestion of Sound Studio. It's great software, but lots of people are getting disillusioned by it, since the author is terrible at replying to support mail, and it's rarely updated. Amadeus II is also really nice, but I find that SS's interface works better for me. So anyway...

Here are some self-indulgent pics from Friday's show. :)

Trip: I'll have a few for you. Giaguara: Funny you mention that. We just had our first gig on Friday night at the Knitting Factory in NYC. For a first gig, it went fairly smoothly, at least after a couple of songs. Here's the set. The zip file is just all of them in one to make it easier...

Hehe.... check out this song. Our singer wanted to take my bass for this, so I "sang". Don't worry, I never intend to sing. It was just for fun. This song is a great tension breaker / time killer at band practice.
