Games

Ok, so since I quit World of Warcraft I played FEAR and Call of Duty
2. At $50 each and about a week of play time (even with a busy life)
you begin to see the value of the MMORPGs. The only problem with them
is they don't evolve fast enough, they quickly get too big for the
companies to manage and you end up getting bored with them.

Another nice thing about World of Warcraft was that it supported the
Mac. The other ones out (top ones being Eve and Guild Wars right now)
don't support OSX. Hopefully with the intel macs things like that
will change. No reason to suffer a lousy OS just to play a good game...

For the record

For the record http://maps.google.com/ is cool. Especially the hybrid
mapping mode -- satellite pictures mixed with route information.

Slow mail on Mac

A possible fix for a slow Mail.app:

Not sure it made things faster but it did seem to rebuild the index
fine.
