Movie plug

Been catching up on some movies lately -  two you must put on your "to-watch" list:

Stardust_R1-[cdcovers_cc]-front Stardust — If you liked The Princess Bride, you’ll like this movie.  Great cast, great story. De Niro is very memorable in this role ("Nightmaare!"). Michelle Pfeiffer… sigh.

 

 

 

August_Rush_Custom-[cdcovers_cc]-cd1August Rush — Great movie with an amazing sound track.  I just downloaded the sound track onto my iPhone.  Johnathan Rhys Meyers sings a number of the songs in the movie and sound track. I have to admit he is a pretty good singer.

I don’t know where I’ve been, but I missed this great writeup on Coding Sanity: Review:WINDOWS XP . I also upgraded to XP. I may try Vista again if I get a beefier machine. — and that’s a sad commentary on the amount of hardware you need to run just an OS!!

MS Live Writer & Ubuntu

Okay.. I’ve come to the decision that I’m going to be using MS Live Writer for my main blogging tool.  It seems to have all of the features I’m looking for – except for being cross-platform.  No worries, I came up with a game plan that would allow me to use Ubuntu as my main OS and still use Live Writer.
