AppleTV

Before I mention my frustration, let me begin by saying - I recently got AppleTV and am simply in love with it.

Unfortunately, for it to work I have to, not ONLY have my computer running - but have to be logged in and have iTunes running.

Unable to Update My iPhone

The next iPhone is rumored to be coming sometime in September. The unfortunate fact is that I have been needing a new phone since I started my new job back in March.

My iMac Doesn't have Enough Memory

To be updated to OS X Lion. I ran the check and updated the OS to make sure I could update / upgrade when Lion was introduced. But never got the message, till just a few minutes ago (when I tried to update).

Now I am not even sure if I will be able to upgrade it to the 2Gb that is minimally needs.

Installing Java / JDK / JRE on Ubuntu

OK, the only issue is that this is a VM (w/o a GUI), but why is it proving to be such a huge problem :o(

OK, so I forgot the root password, but do have access to sudo.

VMware Fusion

Downloaded the 30day Free trial - apparently it requires a key (that was never sent to me and cannot be found anywhere). So, I went and purchased the product - still no key.

Facebook Email

Not sure if I should be excited or frustrated (I'm going with frustration for now), but our good friends at FB is now competing with google and yahoo and bringing us e-mail services too.

Unfortunately I have no hope that this is actually going to be a good thing (look at FB's photo service). For sure, I'm expecting that I am NOT going to be able to access this account via POP or IMAP (which google supports) or be able to support attachments or forward my e-mails to another account.

I am going to go on a limb and predict that they will allow me to forward e-mails from other accounts to FB.
