So I saw this at Apple's home page now. I wonder what it could mean....

EDIT: It means the iPhone.. which is not as exciting as I'd hoped.

DEMOfall 2008

I'm at DEMO 2008 this week. I'll post here with anything really cool. Some great demos this morning, sitting in the afternoon still digesting all the presentations. My web bookmarks for DEMO will be posted here: http://www.delicious.com/mnc/demo08 More soon!

Belkin UPS

Today I started smelling something really awful coming from behind my desk, like a rotten-egg sulfur type smell. But it was tinged with a slight metallic burn, very hard to describe, something that made me think it was electrical in nature. But it was very hard to localize. After a little sniffing around the office, I determined there was a corner of the room that definitely smelled worse than anywhere else, right where I had two UPSs and a power strip which provide power to that quarter of the office (driven off of two outlets). So immediately, everything gets unplugged. I'm taking no chances. And I start sniffing the devices as I pull them off of the power. The culprit? A Belkin UPS, barely a year old, which had started belching forth this horrible odor, and was getting worse even as I stood there holding it. Fortunately, I was home today, and it didn't have a chance to really funkify the house (at best) or catch fire (at worst); I suspect the UPS was on the way to meltdown,

This is not about Leopard.

So far, it's nice, having access to the raw text being posted (and I like the ability to embed pictures automatically). I'll probably play with it during the 30-day trial and see how I like it. No more complaints about Leopard yet. :-)
