Get Caught ... Get Flipped ... Or Get Deeper ...

Hello
Started watching a new TV show ... action packed of course ...
Its called Dark Blue ... here's the official site ...
It stars Dylan McDermott heading a team of undercover cops ...
Show doesn't loose time but throws us right in to their world ...
About code among cops blurring the line between good and evil ...
The plot is fast paced ... but some times a tad unrealistic ...
Almost every episode has got that over-the-top thing going on ...
Anyways ... all those guns, drugs, girls and all things bad ...
Make a good cop show ... a dark one that is easy to enjoy ...
I'm on the first season ... getting to know the team members ...
Hope this show makes it ... doesn't get canceled mid-season ...
Check out the show if you can ... you might like it ...
The title of this article is a tag line for the show ...
Laterx ...

The big cat roars in ...

Hello ...
As you may have heard ... Snow Leopard is here ...
Every other blog I read has something to say about it ...
Most of the reviews say Snow leopard is generally good ...
Everyone agrees that its a quick, easy and a cheap upgrade ...
Naturally ... I'm thinking whether I should upgrade ...
So I ran a quick check to see if my MBP will fully support it ...
And yes ... my hardware will support Snow leopard ... somewhat ...
The problem is ... I have a MacBook Pro from late 2006 ...
It has an ATI RadeonX1600 Graphics card ... not Nvidia ...
Meaning I can't get openCL or quicktime hardware acceleration ...
Also ... ioreg -l -p IODeviceTree | grep firmware-abi ...
Returns a "firmware-abi" = <"EFI32"> ... not "EFI64" ...
Which means I cant boot into full 64bit mode ... bummer !!!
Apart from these ... my MBP will run Snow Leopard just fine ...
So you can understand why I'm not all excited here ...
Anyways ... what do you guys think ... should I upgrade ???
Laterx ...
