The first installment of the Dunes miniseries was a little slow for my taste. Hopefully it will pick up some pace tonite. Vicki thought it was a lot closer to the book than the 1994 movie was. The scenery, decors and wide camera angles reminded me of the first Star Wars.

A puzzling article on Interfacing with Java from PHP.

SGI buys into SuSE Linux. One of these days I'll find time to play with SuSE. I hear it is pretty good and works great on PowerPCs.

Watched about 30 minutes of the Britney Spears Special on FOX last nite. I have to admit I am quite impressed with how smoothly they are able to mix live singing with lip-syncing. Milli Vanilly could have made good use of her sound engineers.

Do not get me the AOL two-way pager for Christmas!

My interest in E-Books was starting to peak until I read this article. Can you say DIVX?
