Had both the CPU and Motherboard fail at the same time. Replaced the power supply also, just in case.

And don't forget the Intel-based Mac required to be able to run the SDK. That'll set you back $599 for a new MacMini (or less if you buy one used).

And, after buying all this equipment and paying the developer fees and actually developing the app, if you want to sell it, you'll have to submit it to Apple and hope they don't deny your submission for some undefined reason (and no, you can't submit your design doc and get pre-approved).

B5 is one of my all-time favorite TV shows, and I've been introducing my fiancee to it. Half-way through S1 right now, and a lot of the storylines really do hold up. Sure, the CGI is dated, and the acting is a bit stilted (but does get better), but the stories are still superior to a lot on TV today.

A RoF series would probably work fairly well as a Sci-Fi Channel series (sorry, I refuse to use their new name). Apart from some minimal special effects depicting the actual Ring, the rest would be costumes and weapons (most left over from previous Sci-Fi fantasy movies) and they film enough in former eastern-bloc countries, moving to Central Germany wouldn't be a huge leap. And there's so much content already generated (between the books and the canon fan-fic), and the show would have a lot of the intrigue we loved and miss about early BSG.

Watched all five seasons of Babylon 5 (plus the pilot movie) with no breaks. Ordered pizza and chinese for all meals. Could only leave to use the bathroom during the opening credits.

When you're unemployed and bored, you'll do lots of stupid stuff.

...do something about the oppressive taxes in California.

...do something about the oppressive traffic.
