Whats happenning now-a-days?

So the inevitable finally happened today! Florida fell. Superman lost saving the gators for so long. I felt terrible.

Well, 22 games undefeated. I read all posts, followed blogs and read news - it was gators everywhere. And today it all ends in that Georgia Dome. The same stadium where we defeated Alabama last year. This year - Alabama proved that they are the better team. I won't feed to the fact that Urban Meyer or Tim Tebow did anything wrong in this finale. But we just didn't show up. We were lost. I was so unimpressed by the play that I couldn't watch the game for most of the time. Anyways, thats the end of the season. I save a trip to Pasadena, CA. More than $1500 savings - lets say (well it isn't savings actually - I was willing to shell out that much if FL reaches National Championship). I don't have high hopes from next year FL team. Still, I will root for them.

Coming back to title of this post. I am current running 3 OS's. Windows Vista (no 7 for me :(. Fedora 12 - this blog is being typed on Fedora. More or less, I am moving to Fedora and will __NOT__ be working on Vista anymore. The only problem I had with Linux (any flavor) in general was with networking. The wireless card and wireless router are just not willing to mate. It took some effort in making them talk and now we are here. I tried Ubuntu (latest version) but gave up. I found Fedora working and it helps.

Ok, the last OS - I bought my Macbook Pro 13" on Thanksgiving. I am just blown away. Why I am not using it? Its just too remarkable to be touched. Even putting my fingerprints on it makes me tinker. Its perfect. Well, as I plan to do some projects on it, I installed Eclipse on it. I found that eclipse was somewhat different from what I last used on Windows. Don't know its Mac related Customization or Eclipse Interfae has changed in a while. Well, the Macbook Pro 13" is amazing and you should buy one. I got a good deal but what I came to know is Apple is going to launch MBPs with Inter Core i7 and i9 processors in 2010. So, if you want to hold on, you may. I can gift this MBP to someone in India lateron and get a higher end one next year if I click to generate some extra income.

So, I bought a lot of stuff on thanksgiving. Will sending them soon to India. Listening to Fireflies (Owl City) now. Thats all! - over & out.

ps: If I ever get an opportunity to make my "hall of fame" - Tebow & Meyer shall be there. I am inspired, floored and feel proud. I wish: somedayI get a chance to meet Tim Tebow!
