stolen: PowerBook by chris rhee
posted on May 15th, 2006 in stolen items
So many of the items that were stolen are things I use on a daily basis, but the loss of a portable Mac that I can call my own has been affecting me quite a bit — especially today.
To make that shiny nickel every week, I do website stuff. I also test websites across Mac and PC browsers, even that hateful browser that developers know as Mac/IE5. Let’s just say that said browser causes some headaches for us every now and then. Sometimes it just makes up reasons to distort your design.
Now, I have no Mac laptop at the moment so I’m “borrowing” use of an iMac that’s downstairs. Every time I want to test out that brand spankin’ new line of CSS code, I have to run my ass down the stairs and hit refresh just to see that my hard work amounted to jack shit in the face of Internet Explorer. Doing all this in 90 degree California weather is not cool.
So damn you, thief (and Mac/IE5 developers). I ran a marathon today.

Yes, but let us not forget the real issue that was brought up in this post: me having to exercise during coding.
