New MBP -- And wow is it fast

So got the new Mac Book Pro, and wow it is quick. Did a clean install and then migrated what I wanted over so I would have everything clean / fresh and not worry about any legacy / crufty bits. So as of now I am set, and it works great. Not sure how much more productive I am.

On a related note, I traded some OT to be able to keep my powerbook, so that is now a backup machine @ home.

wuby

So I joined the Tech Valley Ruby Brigade a couple months back. Is great to hang out with like minded people and talk code. Our last meeting we had Chris M from Rubyology and he talked about Wuby. It is a neat little project, and I've been digging into the code a bit. One of our members was talking adding pid/kill support directly to it. So after the meeting I dug in and hacked some code to do just that. I will probably do a bit more hacking/poking at it as time permits. I am still working on getting more comfortable with ruby (years of perl and php breed some interesting habits..)
