after one of the prettiest weekends this year, rain is again upon us. what i find interesting is that with all this rain, we are still below normal. huh?
i was reading yesterday and today about apple computers switching to intel processors. i find this move a good one. risc processors are wonderful processors and perform great, but they do not lend themselves to desktop computing as well in cisc processors do. by this i mean that the home computing world is dominated by intel and amd. both are cisc processors. most of the home computing software including the majority of games, are designed around the cisc processors. with this being said, apple is now opening the doors for game developers to port their games to the unix/linux os. i truely hope this happens. i have been a proponent of the *nix os's since the early days of redhat. my only complaint has been the gaming industry's reluctance to port their games to that os. with apple now using the cisc processor, it will be much easier for the gaming industry to do just that, port away!
prayer: may the braves win a game. amen
hoping for a win
