Damn! Proof MOSR will post anything
A clueless MacOS Rumors reader (Eric Christensen in case you're curious) wrote this little gem and sent it in...
As a side note, I only pulled this into Photoshop to save it as a JPG from a TIFF. I did not change the word on the button. That's how it displayed."
Ryan Meader replied:
Of course, what Eric and Ryan weren't clueful enough to figure out was that this dialog actually comes from the MacReporter dockling, not Mac OS X's Software Update system.
Anyway, definitely worth a laugh. ;-)

Drinking the Cocoa
I'm having a great time with at the Big Nerd Ranch Cocoa course. It's so useful to have the regimented sit down time and exercises, and to have people around learning the same thing at the same time, and to have a guru instructor around to ask questions.
The coffee station outside the training room has a water cooler with hot/cold water, and there's a box of Carnation Cocoa mix as well.
We've all been drinkin' the Cocoa. ;-)

Teach me
I'm off to the South San Francisco chapter of the Big Nerd Ranch to get Cocoaized. :-)
Have a great weekend!
COWS
COWS == Cluttered Open Window Syndrome, referring to having tons of windows open on your screen at the same time. For some people this is a problem, for other it's heaven.
One of my favourite features of Radio 8 on Mac OS X (and 9 for that matter) is it doesn't have an MDI prison. Multiple monitors attached, and I can work on all of them. Ahhh.... smell the wide open desktop!
Mozilla, mind you, is the ultimate freedom. Tabbed browsing, and multiple windows. It's so effective.
