Ordered [another] PSP

A few months ago, my launch PSP started to fall apart. Text would appear warped, applications wouldn’t start up, etc. After two or three months of problems, it finally died. The power light would appear for about 30 seconds and then nothing, nada, zippo. I believe this is classified as a “brick”. What gets to me is the fact that I didn’t use any homebrew. Despite that fact, I placed an order on a much cooler (silver!) PSP from PlayAsia.

I paid $220 via Paypal, delivered in 3-5 days. Hopefully it’ll be here before I leave for vacation next Sunday.

Windows Vista 2009 Edition?

The sucessor to Windows Vista may very well be released as early as 2009, according to a recent article by PCWorld. Dissapointed, Ben Faith, corporate vice president of development for Windows operating systems, said “Then when we came back to it, we realized that there were incremental things that we wanted to do, and significant improvements that we wanted to make in Vista that we couldn’t deliver in one release.” This implies that the timeframe for Vista was a bit short (eventhough it was slated for a 2003 release). Addtionally, Faith said that we should expect it in about 2.5 years, “You can think roughly two, two-and-a-half years is a reasonable time frame that our partners can depend on and can work with,” he said. “That’s a good time frame for refresh.” The operating system in the works was codenamed “Vienna” but has now changed. Microsoft has not released the current name. Will they be playing catchup to OSX (Leopard) this time around also?
