i can't believe i'm saying this...
I know, two days in a row...impressive, to say the least.
Well, as the title says, I can't believe I'm saying this...but HP may have outsmarted Apple. Let me explain: Last January, Apple introduced the MacBook Air and there were a lot of rumors out there that the new laptop would have a touch screen. I was so excited that this might be the case. I watched intently as the announcement was made.........but the touch screen never materialized. At the latest announcement, they updated the laptops again and no touch screen. A reporter asked Steve Jobs why they haven't looked at touch screen for laptops, Jobs said that "they don't make a lot of sense to us."
Am I the only one who thinks this is crazy talk?? With the wild success of iPhones and their wonderful functionality, Apple obviously has the knowledge and expertise to make this work for laptops or desktops. Instead, HP has beaten them to the punch and come out with a REALLY COOL computer that steals a lot of the mystique from Apple. I know touch screens and tablets are not revolutionary technology but Apple is the perfect company to bring them to the mainstream and make them standard features. I'm starting to ramble, but I just can't believe that Apple, a company that is always so good at reading the market and consumers, would let HP bring their Touchsmart to market while they sit idly and laud their "multi-touch trackpad".
Whew! At least I got that off of my chest. Maybe some Apple intern will read this and send it along to Steve Jobs. My message: "Steve, listen to me. Trackpads cramp your hands. Touch screens are a 'game changer'. Make it happen."

AWOL blogger...
I've been offline for a long time now...but I'm making an attempt to return.
So here's a video that makes me chuckle uncontrollably everytime...
"That's right! Ice...Man. I am dangerous."

i love olympics...
Jamie and I have been watching the Olympics pretty intently this year. It's almost time to go to bed (about to turn midnight), but a lot of the good stuff doesn't come on until late...I'm gonna pay for this in the morning.
Well, I never posted any of our cruise photos...but I guess it's better late than never...although, just a few weeks time have passed and already Braden looks older than he did on the cruise....he even has two teeth now.
Everyone (including Braden) had to do the mandatory lifeboat drill. Notice the green ankle band in case we misplaced him.
I got to go on a four-wheeler tour of Mexico's Wine Country...which basically was one small town and a winery.
