Lessee, a Dell laptop hand-me-down from mom, an old Mac hand-me-down from mom (a grey one, before they got all colorful), an HP laptop, and the one I use is a homebuilt PC.<BR/><BR/>3. Well, I've never used a Mac for extended periods, though I philosophically like them better...<BR/><BR/>4. Atari 800 (yay, Pam!) - it was Atari's two cartridge home computer, and I never had a game machine of theirs (or anyone's, really).<BR/><BR/>5. Oh, played Jardinains the other night for a minute. Not so into them.<BR/><BR/>6. Hm. My dad wrote a hang gliding simulator for the Atari, and when we got PC clone (an AT&T) I loved Chuck Yeager's Flight Simulator.<BR/><BR/>7. Yeah, comfortable with html, css, and I can work with javascript, though I can't code from scratch.<BR/><BR/>8a. Never used either; 8b. Not so much.<BR/><BR/>9. Only on the cell phone.<BR/><BR/>10. Nope! And proud of it!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11698061933050789168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30831203.post-70729766217681664612007-10-09T09:35:00.000-04:002007-10-09T09:35:00.000-04:001. I'm using a Powerbook.2. This is all I own. I ...1. I'm using a Powerbook.<BR/><BR/>2. This is all I own. I looove it.<BR/><BR/>3. I'm a huge Mac convert. To me, it's the difference between something that's very flexible but completely illogical and indiscriminate (my old PC) or something that's perhaps less flexible, but perfectly logical, smart, and streamlined (my Mac). There's never a program running that I don't know is running, there's never a bit of spyware to be found, there are no hidden things on the hard drive... just nice, easy use of a machine.<BR/><BR/>4. I really really loved my Commodore 64 as a kid.<BR/><BR/>5. I played boxing on my friend's new Wii the other day. So much fun! And I have arm cramps!<BR/><BR/>6. I loved "Zack McCracken" and "Maniac Mansion" and all those language-based adventure games.<BR/><BR/>7. I used to know BASIC and Logo!<BR/><BR/>8. I'm a Sibelius addict! Best thing that every happened to me. As far as snail mail letters go... er, not much. I love them, but I never get around to writing them.<BR/><BR/>9. I have kind of a crappy one that I don't use much. I'm hoping for a nice new one for the holidays this year.<BR/><BR/>10. I do have an iPod, and I do enjoy it a great deal for the bus and such. It makes me very happy to have all that music with me everywhere.Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14447346019123162711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30831203.post-87363295434907075102007-10-08T20:20:00.000-04:002007-10-08T20:20:00.000-04:001.

The only two I really use are a windows PC I built myself recently and a unix server that runs my websites.<BR/><BR/>3. PC. Macs are utter trash. Not that windows is an amazinly good operating system, but I know from using both extensively that the only reason to like a mac is because you think the OS looks pretty. As far as both usability and power, it is without a doubt inferior to windows (xp, not vista) in almost every way. The only exception I would make would be for expose, which is both attractive and a very good usability feature.<BR/><BR/>4. I guess a commodore 64, although the first real computer I had was an Apple IIe.<BR/><BR/>5. Yesterday evening. <A HREF="http://ishi.blog2.fc2.com/blog-entry-199.html" REL="nofollow">Double Wires</A>, a rather addictive Flash game.<BR/><BR/>6. Karateka and some pirates game on the Apple IIe.<BR/><BR/>7. Yes.<BR/><BR/>8a. Finale.<BR/><BR/>9. Yes.<BR/><BR/>10. No. I don't like headphones -- they hurt my ears (and earbuds hurt my ear canals).Ianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06925499983922691248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30831203.post-91342648677898632262007-10-08T16:08:00.000-04:002007-10-08T16:08:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Andrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02083802530672100896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30831203.post-11732156954115031602007-10-08T16:07:00.000-04:002007-10-08T16:07:00.000-04:00Yay, Ms. Pacman!! :-)Yay, Ms. Pacman!! :-)Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16632245438511998562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30831203.post-38432151128050583162007-10-08T16:02:00.000-04:002007-10-08T16:02:00.000-04:001.Mac Book2.
