Apple press conference scheduled for Oct. 19th

Man, Apple has been very very busy… Wonder what this one is about…

Apple press conference scheduled for Oct. 19thJust got word that Apple has scheduled a press confernce during the preview for next week’s PhotoPlus Expo 2005 to unveil their “latest professional innovations.” No details yet as to what they might be showing off, but if I had to guess I’d go for a Final Cut update centered around h.264 and the Quick Time upgrade. It would be interesting, too, if Apple were to announce some professional still photography tools at the show, since that’s a market they haven’t really entered into themselves yet. We’ll see, but I’m not expecting anything too big so close on the heels of of Wednesday’s announcements.

From Saturday’s photoshoot with Katie

First photoshoot in months, the pics turned out pretty nice, especially when I had absolutely no planning or concept for the shoot…

The shoot went for about an hour, I got about 400 pics, around 3GB… Post-processing them should keep me entertained for a while… Oh yeah, now I have 1.5GB of RAM, PS works way better than before… ๐Ÿ™‚

Installed new PHP cache

Installed eAccelerator, “a further development from mmcache PHP Accelerator & Encoder. It increases performance of PHP scripts by caching them in compiled state, so that the overhead of compiling is almost completely eliminated“.

Jen’s G2 runs a lot faster now, but still not fast enough for me to re-upgrade my snapshots gallery to it. ๐Ÿ™‚
