Last Thursday Ed Roberts died. Electrical engineer, computer engineer and entrepreneur, he is most often known as the "the father of the personal computer". He designed the first commercially successful personal computer in 1975, after making electronic calculators popular a few years earlier.
Bill Gates and Paul Allen joined his company, MITS, to develop software and Altair BASIC was Microsoft's first product.
very nice saturday. ran a ton of errands in the morning, then met hans briefly, he got an ipad, we stopped by best buy to look for a psp go. saw a pillow fight on union square, a few thousand people hitting each other with pillows. apparently same thing happened in other cities around the world.
the weather was perfect in the morning and early afternoon, but turned chilly in the evening. it's in the low 40's right now, brrr.
nicole and i met her dad and stepmom for dinner at crispo, on 14th street and 8th ave. excellent italian food. after that we went to church at st xavier. it was a nice, but long mass, started at 8 pm and i got home a few minutes ago (!)
tinkering around with nero, may install the latest version because it has a bluray authoring plug-in that i want to play with.
maybe i should get an ipad myself as well
