I was on a great conference call yesterday with some folks talking about J2EE vs. .NET, Linux vs. Windows and a great quote came up (forgive me, I don't know who):

"Ya, Linux is cheap . . . like a puppy."

DevCon II becomes BlogCon I
The amazing thing is that the Web Services DevCon II is turing into BlogCon I. [Sam Gentile]

Sigh...I attended the original Web Services DevCon on the west coast a while back.  Figured it would be overkill to attend the east coast DevCon.  But, sounds like everyone is having a blast in Boston.  Sigh.  And Brian Jepson is blogging the whole thing session by session over a GPRS wireless phone from a laptop running OS X...I miss my geeks!

There's a story about me and my diabetes in the New Straits Times!  The NST is a newspaper in South Asia, primarily Malaysia.  This story is significant since I live in Portland, Oregon!  I did this interview while I was at TechEd 2002 Malaysia this summer.  Thanks to Umah Papachan for the story!

I've ported my "Tiny Abstract OS and CPU in C#" project from GotDotNet over to VB.NET.  I've also put up the PowerPoint deck from my presentation on this project at TechEd 2002 Malaysia.  The Tiny OS VB.NET version is up here.  (no warranty express or implied).  I had a little trouble with the conversion initially, but it went smoothly in other places.

Next step will be to see if I can get it running on my Linux Mono machine...
