Economies of Scale? Nah Mossy

I've started developing ASP.NET apps on my MacBook (Isn't that just pure evil??), So I bought VMWare Fusion (excellent product BTW) and I have my environment sitting nicely in a Win2k3 virtual machine.

I bought the MacBook about 3 months ago, and didn't have much money at the time, so got the 2x512Mb basic ram option. I'd now like to upgrade to 4Gb (my macbook only recognises 3.3Gb, officially 2Gb), and found great value macbook ram in a shop on Pitt Street. Apple's prices are a complete rip off, but I went to check anyway. here's what I found.

I wasn't the best at algorithms in UL, but why would getting 2 of the exact same product product in 1 box incur a EUR10 extra cost?

Las Vegas Mossy

What a hole. Nah, for what Las Vegas is supposed to do, it does that. It's just like ronseal. We drove to vegas through an amazing thunderstorm with lightning all around. When we arrived from los angeles, it was so much hotter than there. A dead heat with no wind.



We are staying in a really nice hotel called Harrahs. There is a TV in the bathroom, what more can I say? We have a pool, and the casino is not too bad downstairs. Great thing is the location tho, we are right across from the Venetian, Ceasars Palace and the Bellagio.

We both lost about $50 each over the 4 days. We are soooooo chronic gamblers, you don't even know! Anyway, I found that the people are snobby, and everyone seems to be after your money. I know, I know. It's Vegas!!! Donna loves the place tho. Poker slots all the way for her.

To sum up. We spent 4 days in Vegas. We are flying to San Francisco now, and I bought a MacBook, because I'm a nerd, and that's what I do.
