The Brad Hole

My presentation at the Apple store on Saturday went well. Given that the general public had, at most, 3 days notice and the Apple Store website claimed I was speaking at 6pm (closing time for them, as it turns out), there was a better turnout than I was expecting. I think there were 10-12 folks there, and a number of them had some pretty good, and reasonably technical questions about Mac gaming and the porting process. If we could get the process a little more organized, I'm sure we could have a pretty significant turnout.

I was able to show Medal of Honor: Breakthrough as I'd just gotten it to what I would consider to be "beta quality" on Friday. It's running more or less bug-free now, although it needs some optimization done to it. Hopefully we'll be able to start the beta test for it in earnest sometime in the next week or two.

Last Friday, I started coming down with the cold that Beth had been carrying all last week, and by mid-day Saturday, I was officially "sick." The timing for this was good, I suppose. My presentation at the Apple store lasted about an hour, and by the time I was done, I was totally spent. By the time we got home, I was wiped out, and I spent most of Sunday blowing my nose and sleeping. I managed to talk Beth into picking me up a sandwich from A.J's, and as a bonus, she brought back a cannoli as well. That's why I married her.

My honker is still full of slimy little dwarves wearing green and yellow hats, but I feel a lot better this morning. Beth has the day off due to MLK day, so I'll try to milk some more sympathy out of her, and perhaps another cannoli as well.
