Boycott TigerDirect

I've never seen such a blatant blackmail attempt, other than say SCO. It doesn't make any sense. I don't know anyone that uses TigerDirect, but I would stop using them if I were you. And it seems they are a frequent rebate scammer also.

Inertia project

Here's a recent picture of my Windowing system called "Inertia". I've done some mockups and prototypes a few years ago, but this version is really coming together nicely. Notice the teapot in the menu - that is a live 3D object that can be rotated around - while not very useful, it illustrates the fact that any widget can be put into a menu. :) It is written in Io (http://www.iolanguage.com), a language with succinct syntax and a prototype-based object model.
