Apple's new laptop
Even in the beginning of January this might be one of the funniest things we'll see this year.

Back for 2009
Back from the Christmas holidays and back to work routine, after a week of running-in. Not quite still under holiday blues, but the work engines are still very cold.
This year will be a year of some major changes. The anticipated projects in the pipeline are writing the masters thesis and moving to Luxembourg.
As now has become the custom, I ignored the blog completely during the holidays. Happy New Year to everyone. Hope this year will be better than your last ;)
Still Alive
I think this is the longest stretch of time that I have spent away from the blog. As anticipated October and November were absolutely mental with work, most of which was self inflicted. Apart from sitting for hours at a time writing code, writing words and preparing presentations, I had a fair share of travel. I lost track of all the flights I had, but they included several trips to London, trip to Denver, and trips to the dot and the semi-colon.
