About this site

For six years, the Internet Nexus served as my technology blog, but I've since started blogging at the SuperSite Blog instead. If you're looking for the blog, please head there. --Paul

iBook love

Conspiracy theorists won't know what to make of this one, but here goes: I brought my aging iBook 500 (as usual) and an IBM ThinkPad R50 to CES (I generally travel with at least two laptops), and then shared a huge, power outlet-laden room at the Aladdin with Keith and Joe, which was fun. Between us, there were four computers (Keith has a nice Compaq widescreen and Joe has the new Acer Tablet PC), three Pocket PCs, three cell phones, two Fossil SPOT watches, two iPods, and more wires than you could imagine. But the reason I'm telling this story is that we shared the room's Internet connection via the iBook's wireless adapter: It's just so damned easy to set up. So there you go: Real Mac use in the real world.
