So my wonderful wife gave me a new Powerbook G4 15″. And it’s a a nice machine. A lot of people will probably laugh at me when the new Intel Powerbooks will be available in early 2006, but she could only get hold of one now. And I’m not complaining. I’m currently so poor that dogs compulsory take a piss on my leg.
The screen has the same resolution as the last 17″ screen. So now I have to change the font size in Xcode and NetNewsWire to be able to read. And I keep finding new specs on the machine. I had to go into the audio settings and found that the machine now supports 24-bit 96khz audio. There’s also digital I/O.
It’s a joy to do programming when I have some screen real estate. My old 12″ screen was a bit cramped when using Xcode with all the windows. And I have started to play games again. I have gone through Battlefield 1942 again. But now in high resolution. It’s a great game.
I haven’t updated the blog as often as I should, but I’ve been busy. Looking for a job, programming on my new IAX softphone program. But I’m really going to need a good graphics designer to design the icon and the UI. So if someone feels up for it, send me a mail at jacken@jackenhack.com

Jacken!
According to “…dogs compulsory take a piss on my leg”, I feel sorry for you!
Is there anything I can do to help?
You know I use to buy your old machines. So, is your old powerbook 12″ for sale?
Looking forward to hear from you!
