Another preview build of 2.8.5.0 is in the pipeline. When it is done uploading it will be available here. This build has had only minor tweaks since the last preview to a couple of the python modules in the library, and so will likely be the last preview before the 2.8.5.0 release. On the other hand, some other fixes have already been made to the wxWidgets C++ code and there will probably be a 2.8.6.0 real soon.

It's been about a month since I switched my primary computer to a MacBook Pro, (2.4 GHz, 4G ram, with the new 17 inch hi-rez display) which I got for myself for my birthday. So I thought that this would be a good time for a review, and since I'm now a blogger it makes sense to share it with all of you too.
A few years ago I realized that this whole "blogging thing" wasn't just a passing fad, and decided that maybe I should jump on the bandwagon and do a bit of blogging myself. After all, within certain communities I'm a fairly well known Internet personality, the de-facto leader of one of those communities, and involved in several others to varying levels. So why shouldn't I blog?
Fast-forward three years... Looking back I see a series of Life Events™, tons of work, and plenty of excuses that have gotten in the way to actually moving forward with this project. However a few days ago a family member asked me to set up a blog for them on my site, and I decided that I couldn't make excuses to myself any longer and that it is past time that I do one for myself. So I set this up at the same time as the other blog and here it is. Now I have a place to write about Life, the Universe, and Everything, and anything else that tickles my fancy from time to time. Hopefully you'll enjoy reading as much as I hope to enjoy writing it.
