So I kind of wanted to get back into the swing of posting at least a few times a week (hats off to bloggers who manage to write something every day, sometimes about important or cool things, or what their cat just spit out — to each his own), and I was working on getting back into and was ready to go in that direction.

And then the computer came into play (of course it could be argued that I came along to the computer and touched it, thus causing the problem). So as of this writing, though I’m able to post (obviously), I’m not able to do it in my preferred way. I usually boot into OS X and fire up NetNewsWire and ecto and off I go. Unfortunately for me I keep getting random kernel hangs and I’m not even sure why. I think a part of me as effectively given up on getting things working again, at least for now.

Anyhoo, can’t post neat asides really cause I don’t have access to my feeds that I frequent (can’t remember my password to Newsgator). So no posts for a bit.

Also if you know of any contests or quick/cheap ways to get a Macbook/Macbook Pro/iMac let me know. Kind of sick of the hackintosh route and I’d like to go genuine, plus Vista isn’t so bad when the computer can run it. On another note, for you OS X users, is there any other filesystems OS X can read/write that’s not FAT32 or HFS+ or HFS?

UPDATE: Welp that’s over with — for now. Back and running on OS X and hoping it doesn’t magically go poof again. For all you Vista haters too, it’s not so bad.
