The iBook has once again gone back to visit the service center, leaving me to use the old Powerbook, which is still chugging away having had no serious problems at all. Hell, I have a PowerBook 180C that still works. For the record, this is the 3rd iBook apple has sent us, and the second time this one has had to go in for service since we got it in January. We've already had to have the power adapter replaced. I've used Macs for twenty years, and owned one for at least thirteen, and I have never, never had as many problems with a product, and I had a Performa AND a Quadra. Hello? Quality control...

Art Spiegelman: Open Me...I'm a Dog!
Very funny, kind of sad, wonderful kid's book. (*****)Dr. Seuss: One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish
Not as good as I remember, but fun nonetheless! (****)Ina May Gaskin: Ina May's Guide to Childbirth
This is an amazing birth book, and steeled my resolve to strive for a natural childbirth. The first half of the book is birth stories, the second is a serious look at the issues surrounding birth. Reinforces the difference between obstetrics, which views birth as a pathology, and midwifery, which views birth as a process. (*****)Linda Nagata: Memory
My favorite kinf of SF - hard planet colonization. I didn't entirely care for the concept of "silver", but I enjoyed the story. (***)
