Knuckleheads Can't Leave the Country

Sorry for the lack of posts. I was on vacation last week with wifey and the kids. I planned to post from the beach, but the old iBook melted down the day we left. Luckily, Apple's repairing it for free.

Also, I'm supposed to be in Paris this week to cover Apple Expo for Wired News. Trouble is, I lost my passport. This I discover just hours before the flight left yesterday. It's too late now, so I cancelled the trip. Needless to say, I'm apoplectic.

I was most looking forward to the Worldwide Newton Association's first conference, which is being held in Paris right after Apple Expo. It's a source of wonder that this discontinued product refuses to die, and is kept technologically current by its users.
