Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Looks like my dev device gets something new to play with.

Hey. New board.

Woo! Though I'll probably still have to wait a while, since I don't want to give up my jailbreak. The new mail app looks nice or I might not even bother, since I have equally good notifications under JB.

(What I really miss is the old MS Money that came with my Dell waaaaaaaaaay back when. Like, Win98 way back when. But it was a kickass finance program.)

I remember that! I used it for years. Sporadically.

D has the comp-sec heebie-jeebies about Mint or any other program that links with our bank, but I may try it for my business account.

Apple wouldn't JUST offer Lion via the App Store, right? I mean, since there are still plenty of people out there running Leopard who might still want to upgrade to Lion? The "how to buy" tab on apple.com is not filling me with confidence.

I believe that's what they are doing.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

You can always borrow my Snow Leopard DVD if you need to.

Hopefully, Lion will come with some sort of method to burn a recovery DVD or USB key.

Thanks - I'll let you know if I need it!

If Ethan's laptop is running Snow Leopard (which I think it is - it's at least a generation newer than mine) I'm hoping I can buy a family license and just burn the installer to a thumb drive.

(Damnit, now I've started browsing the Apple store. Please tell me I do NOT have the money to buy a new laptop. Even a refurbished one. Seriously, I don't.)
