As you know, we moved apartment last week from Battery Park City to Jersey City. One of the main attraction is the great sun light and the view.

Tennis photos
Last Monday I brought along my camera to my weekly tennis match. My friend Dan took some photos of me while I played my match. I was going to return the favour during his match but I played a double match instead 🙂 I guess I'll have to photograph him next time we play!
More on Flickr but this one on the left showing me in mid serve with my foot a few inches off the ground is my favorite of them all.
I think if my coach in Hong Kong all those years ago when I was a kid see these photos, he would be proud!

Chicago
Apparently eiron has been too busy to blog about our trip to Chicago (which is true) so I'll just post the link to the Flickr photo set. You can enjoy the photos while waiting patiently for eiron's post.

I know I need new computer when…
- Web browsers (Firefox or Safari) run slow when iTunes is playing.
- I can type faster than the browser can display sometimes (think back to the 14.4kbps modem era).
- iPhoto takes forever to load, to save changes of photos, or to exports to Flickr.
- Video podcast in 320×240 resolution drops frames when played. Don't even think about HD or H.264 encoded video.
- And most important of all, eiron has a faster computer than either of mine!
Having said all that, my G4 800MHz Titanium PowerBook has been with me for over 4 years. And forcing it to drive my new Dell LCD monitor @ 1900×1200 resolutions doesn't help the speed matter either.
Now, should I prolong the suffering and wait till after Christmas to see if there is any bargains or price drop? Or I can just pick up one of those speedy Mac Pro from the SoHo Apple Store this coming Black Friday, especially with the 10% discount?
