blojsom 3.0 update

Basically what's in CVS is blojsom 3.0. However, my iMac is sick and so I'm working on a Powerbook G4 800 MHz. Eeeegads! It's slow. And although developer CVS at SourceForge is working, it still seems there are a few kinks they need to work out. Once my iMac is back, I'll get a 3.0 release candidate or whatever out on SourceForge.

Coming to you live from the trusty Powerbook G4 800 MHz.

My iMac is sick ... again. It's unfortunate, but I've got AppleCare so no worries here.

The genius at the Apple store went right to ordering a new logic board. I hit her up with details about all the configurations they were going to try and detailed information from the system log. I'd love it if Apple would allow me to create a ticket online when I'm bringing my hardware into the Apple store with log snippets, screen captures, and other supporting information. I want to help and get my hardware working ASAP and if that information is useful to the technician, that's great.

The problem? Well, the iMac would drop the ethernet adapter maybe 5 minutes after starting. It seemed to cycle the ethernet adapter up and down, but it was never able to retrieve another IP address after the initial drop. It also seemed to be dropping my Lacie firewire disk that I use for backup. That was unfortunate because I wasn't able to backup the machine before sending it in for repair.

And if you're purchasing Apple hardware, get the AppleCare! The bill for the logic board and service time without it would've been close to $1000. Scary.
