Want to contact Apple? Beware – you might get stuck in an infinite loop.
I was doing a little surfing on Apple’s site and came across their address: Apple Computer, Inc., 1 Infinite Loop, Cupertino, CA 95014, USA. Though I’m sure that this amusing tidbit of knowledge is already well known, I thought I’d share it with all my fans (what a joke to think I actually have fans).
If you don’t know what an infinite loop is, think about trying to go in a circle until you reach the end of it. Then consider what might happen if your computer were to attempt this.
I always read and follow along with your blog. I’m probably your biggest fan, next to your mom of course.
Aw..shucks
I read the blog pretty regularly–and am amazed at your website-making knowledge and skills. I actually just made the “big switch” to a mac (iMac G4). I love it so far — the OS is rock solid — never hesitates or freezes.
Hey well that’s cool! It’s good to know that I’ve got 2 readers
. (Acutally, I know I’ve got more than 2 … it’s just that only two have made themselves known on here recently.)
Stan would be proud of your switch to the iMac. He keeps urging me to make the switch, too. I’d like to get a Mini, but I can’t justify the purchase – I don’t know how much I would use it. A lot of the school work I have to do on my Windows-based school-issued laptop. Also, the fact that the Mini is not a laptop and is therefore less transportable makes the laptop the obvious first choice for which computer to use. You could argue that I could purchase a Mac laptop, but I don’t have that much money to spare.
What are you looking at doing after you graduate from high school?
I really don’t know what I’m looking to do after HS. I’m a sophomore now, so I have some time. Yeah, the Mac laptops are pretty pricy, but it would be worth it if you could somehow free yourself from the tyranny of Microsoft, and only use macs
. Actually I still use my windows laptop a lot.
What exactly do you use to make your sites? Have you ever used something like Dreamweaver? I love how the pages are so cleanly formatted. Nice font choices by the way too.
Actually, I don’t really use any fancy programs to make my web sites. I code all the HTML and CSS using a text editor for Windows called ConTEXT – http://www.context.cx. Because I don’t want to shell out the money for Photoshop, I use an open source program called the GIMP for all my graphics work. You can download a Windows version at http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/ and a Mac version at http://gimp.org/macintosh/. Make sure you find the Mac download that is free – there are a couple different distributions on there, but that URL should guide you through all the necessary steps. I installed it on my sister’s iBook so I could probably half-answer any questions you’ve got.
