As you may have noticed, most of Deep Thought’s content has well, umm, gone. This is my fault as I accidentally overwrote the database (I didn’t realise until someone told me a few minutes ago). I don’t have a back up myself, though my host hopefully will. If they do, then all will be good; if not, then I guess we’ve lost the few posts we actually have made so far.

The forums are unaffected by this. Oh, and I’ll remember to make weekly backups of the DB from now on.

[UPDATE 1 April 2007: Thanks to the magic of archive.org, some of the posts made before the Great Database Overwrite of 2004 have been rediscovered and reposted. Yay! --Nick]

The Washington Times has named the iMac G5 their Computer of the Year. From the article:

It will cost close to $2,100 to get the supersized 20-inch model with extra RAM and a wireless keyboard and mouse. That’s a relatively high price in this age of far-less-expensive Windows-based machines. But Apple Computers IMac G5 is a very impressive machine. It earns top honors from this column, and might well earn a top spot on your holiday shopping list.

News.com.com reports that Apple is opening a retail store in Toronto in 2005, their first in Canada.  There’s no word on other Canadian locations, but it’s a step in the right direction.  I just wish there were one on my side of the continent!
