Exciting Photo of the Day

Last night's compsoc talk by Apple was pretty interesting, a fair amount of stuff I already knew, but some details on the internals of OS X (for example, how Rendezvous works). Plus there was a look at the developer tools which I've only played with a little - it certainly clarified a few things that I hadn't quite "got" from going through one of the tutorials.

I managed to get the new camera working without too much difficulty - just a case of tracking down some XP drivers. Unfortunately, I managed to lose the LJ article I was working on when it got to the inevitable reboot. *sigh* I'll have to try that again at the weekend. Anyway, exciting sample photo: My desk in the office.

    Things to do this evening:
  1. Vote - although I stupidly left my polling card at home this morning. Gah. Will be voting LibDem, not least because he was the only candidate who put any effort into campaigning - if the others can't be bothered to put any work into getting/keeping the job, how likely are they to put any effort into doing it?
  2. Go to the cinema to see X2.
  3. Watch the latest episode of Angel (assuming eMule has finished downloading it).
  4. Write killer app on iBook.

Well that's not fair at all. I may have to pout.

As far as reviews, I'm just looking for whether or not it lives up to the hype. I trust your opinion more than critics.

Well, seing as you get The Matrix Reloaded 8 days before we do, I think it's only fair that we get a small bit of recompense. Be warned that I am EasilyPleased(tm), so don't trust any review too far...

I was under the impression that The Matrix Reloaded dropped everywhere on the same day. Oh well, I guess that works out then.

I prefer easily pleased to horribly cynical any day.

Plenty of places do get it same day/next day as the US - see here and note how only Japan gets it after the UK...
