So I’ve always fancied the DJ life style, in the dj booth, jumping up and down to the beats, vinyl in hand, while the crowd below rages on through the night. Ok, it did turn out exactly like that: replace the DJ booth with a rickedy old table that I should of thrown out a long time ago, vinyl with mp3s and the raging with more of an ebb and flow!

What’s a virtual desktop you may ask. Right now, all the windows that you have open are sitting on one desktop so to speak, just imagine having another computer monitor to your left with say just your mail client open and another screen to your right with say your finder open and an ftp client window open.

Ok Mac Cult members the wait is over, here are the new announcements from the 2006 Macworld expo in Sanfran. Yet again Mr J. has stumped us all with the announcement of a new PowerBook not iBook as expected!

Do I have to phone a friend of a friend who lives in The Haight and get em to stroll down the hill to the expo with a cellphone in hand?
Here is a photo that I snapped from outside my front door one morning this week as I was getting ready to go ski.
