I guess I forgot to mention this: I've had serious hard drive problems during the past three days; some sectors of my hard drive have been overrun by thugs and ruffians. There are plenty of worse times this could have happened (during the PDC), but this is a headache I didn't need. After attempting some diagnostics (the hard drive issues are serious enough to crash and/or hang the diagnostic tools I tried), I've now re-partitioned my hard drive, leaving 5 GBs of un-partitioned no-man's land in the middle of my drive.

This means I should have a working laptop for the PDC, which I consider essential. There will be a ridiculous number of bloggers at the PDC, and I'm really looking forward to reading some real-time feedback.

Soon I'll be able to write more than "I'm looking forward to the PDC."
