getting ready to travel

August 21, 2000 by Eric Richardson

It's almost time to leave again, so that means updating all the demo'able apps on my notebook. Trips = show time; and you can't convert people with old, unstable code.

Oh my... Broadcast 2000 now has firewire support. I must make this work. Getting this and all my firewire stuff to work under Linux would very much make my life complete. Video is the last thing I have to reboot into Windows for. If I had a video solution in Linux... Oh my.
