 Lucky for all of you, I'm in a posting mood. Sorry that I don't have the 30-post-a-day frequency of Engadget, but then again, the posters at Engadget get paid to post. But I like knowing readers are getting the freshest, so here you go. First things first. The September 12th Apple Event. What happened you ask? We'll I'll give it to you straight Mr. Lives Under A Rock. • New iPods. They're being called Generation 5.5, mainly because of the lack of a jump of features over previous models. I wonder if they're trying to bump up the iPod as often as they bump up computer specs, but it's not such a bad model anyway. Nothing I'd pick up since I already have a 5G, but for those who have a 4G or earlier would be certainly pleased with it. And I'm sure the new high point of 80 Gigs is a good deal breaker. Or maker? • New Nanos. No doubt you've seen the commercial already. On television (one's on right now!), Apple's Website, print ads, or even on espn.com. I like they direction they went, mostly because I always liked the look of the Minis. Not sure the best choice was to make the 8 Gig model black-only, but maybe it'll be a symbol of badassery. "Oh, look! A new Nano! It's black, he must be really cool!" Or something. • New Shuffles. Can they make this thing any frickin' smaller? I submit that they can not. Well, maybe if they took the clip off, but I like the idea, because you might lose it or something. But at $79, it's one piece of Bubbalicious-sized awesome-ness. And then, two days later, came the September 14th Nintendo Event. Wii pricing and release date abound! • November 19th. All gasps about how it's two days after the PS3 launch aside, I guess it's better than being $600. Hell, it's a lot better! • $250. This comes with Wii Sports, The Wii-mote, the nunchuk attatchment, as well as free Nintendo WiFi access, and all of the add-on trimmings. The new iTunes is quite an improvement, though. I've heard some whinings about inconsistencies with album art, but I've had nothing but a sparkling experience with it. Guess what else you can buy from the iTunes Other than that? Not too much to report. Look for the big N at the Tokyo Games Show, and Apple on September 25th at/just before Photokina. What's that? mc chris is on iTunes? Sweet. [Your mom, you know?]

My designs          All about me
Many years ago, a child was born unto Rodney & Beth Murray. Her name was Lorna. And then a little while later, they had a son. His name was Ian. That’s the one you’re interested in.
I was a fairly normal child growing up, At least as normal as a child of someone in the army should be. I saw many interesting places, and met many fascinating people most of which I still call friend. I had an early interest in art, and my schooling only fueled that. I took several art classes, followed by 2,160 hours of Graphic Design classes—all in high school. From there, I went to New Hampshire where I had some life-changing experiences and found McIntosh College. A highly intense & accelerated 2-year program gave me strong design fundamentals, and then built upon that with some of the best instructors I’ve ever encountered. After a few ho-hum jobs out of college I decided to start doing it for myself. You can find this culmination of art and technology at creativeguts.com. Take a look. Other than that, I enjoy being cool. This is, of course, when I am not kicking ass or pushing haters down stairs. |
