Apparently the Wu Tang Clan loves Apple the most. This is real, as reported by Wired. If I knew anything about pop-culture, I’d have probably already known this.

Uh… I just noticed that the Wu Tang website is on Sony Music. So I’m gonna have to encourage you to not actually buy this CD. Or else you’re in for a world of trouble.

Ian bought the video-enabled iPod last week, and boy-oh-boy have we had a good time with it! Watching episodes of Lost (how did I NOT watch this show when it came out the first time??), playing with video hacks (thanks Engadget!), and just plain old oogling. We hooked it up to thje TV just fine, and we’ve started to think of some interesting projects to use it for. More updates to follow.

So, I’ve been getting some comments on when the next Tired Thumbs is coming, and I assure you… SOON! Charlie and I have had some scheduling issues, life issues, etc. Hopefully one this week. If I can tear myself away from WoW. I’ll try.

I finally tossed the old $20 CRT monitor and got a new BenQ FP91E. It’s very nice looking, but the display isn’t the best for graphics and text (wait… isn’t that just about everything?). But it’s still a lot sleeker than the old Triniton, and doesn’t have a giant scratch in the middle. w00t!
