Assimilated

posted on september 3, 2003, tag: site

You may or may not have noticed that I've folded in all of the entries from CodeBucket here. I've also added the sidebar links from CB. If you posted a comment at that site, it will still exist here. All the entries were moved over except the first entry, which was useless anyway.

As I said the other day, separating my weblog into two parts was a mistake. I've realized that a majority of what I'm interested in writing about is technology-related. I think I decided to open CodeBucket because I felt the over-abundance of tech stuff here at Rage was boring people, but then I realized that that why people read the site. Granted, the random posts help (and being funny never hurts), but I think most people have been reading for the past few years because they enjoy reading about the same stuff I enjoy writing about.

That said, CodeBucket is no more. The domain will still forward to this site, and emails sent to my CB account will still reach me. I'm sorry to have created trouble for anyone who reads this site regularly. You won't have to visit two sites any longer, and hopefully this will make it easier to write again (having to write for two sites was really hard).

Pfff... no worries. Just so long as you write somewhere... hehe!

Awesome! Now I don't have to check out both sites, which is what I've been doing. That aside... what do you think about the whole Virginia Tech Apple G5 cluster? I'm still ponsering on wether to purchase a 1.6 G5 or dual 1.25 G4.

Garrett on 09/03/2003:

The only thing that annoys me about the V-Tech cluster is the fact that that's 110 machines Apple won't ship to consumers in the next month. I think that while education is a huge part of Apple's revenue, education purchases are always going to be there. It's the consumers they need to make sure are 100% happy, and pushing back G5 orders by a month is not going to do that.

As far as buying a Mac goes, I wouldn't bother buying a G4 at all right now. Once the G5s are in full-throttle, prices on the G4s will go down. Right now they're more expensive for their speed.

At this point, I think buying a dual-2GHz-G5 is the best option even at it's price-point.

Just keep posting movies of your cat with laser pointers, and it's all good, you know what I'm saying?
