x-fade site logo 1st edition

250406
Today I described and updated the x-fade site logo page. Also I made the sample sites for showing new features.
Please check it out if you are interested in it.
Almost the work is translation. It took a lot of time ! However, I think that it's very good experience for my English language skill. (may be...)
The x-site logo feature (v1.0.2) has been completed for the time being. ... Next. I'm going to develop the BBS engine (Perl) of RapidWeaver BBS again. Next features will be simple search and RSS support.
Anyway, I can not start to develop the Plugin till RapidWeaver 3.5 SDK is released. And I will debug BBS engine until that time. I can't wait RapidWeaver 3.5 !

green cherry

blog-2006-04-16
It's very short season to enjoy cherry blossoms. It's almost 1 week even if it's long. Now the cherry has been changed to only green leaf. No one enjoys it usually.
But Imamatsu-shisho who is great master of RAKUGO performer invited me to enjoying green cherry viewing at Ueno. Of course it's a kind of RAKUGO performer's joke mind. (Also the cherry blossoms had scattered)
However, Imamatsu-shisho had another plan that is to see Downtown Museum near here.
The lifestyle of the downtown in Tokyo from 1920's to 1940's are being displayed in Downtown Museum.
The scene of the RAKUGO story is laid at this generation. So Imamatsu-shisho has lots of knowledge about this. We had special explanation of master during seeing in Museum. Of cause, it was very interesting.
Afterwards, we enjoyed ourselves drinking the beer and Japanese sake under the green cherry tree. Needless to say that there were no party like us.
I made slide show of Downtown Museum by RapidWeaver. Please see it if you interested in old Japanese life style.

parallels pb2

10042006
Parallels Public beta2 has been released. The some problems (Networking problems , CD image problems and Improvement of speed and stability) seem to be solved in this version.

The Parallels does not require reboot process when it starts up windows so the Parallels is better than Boot Camp. Moreover, it uses the Virtualization Technology of the Intel VT-x so the speed seems to be also fast like native.
From the above-mentioned, I guess the Leopard must include the Virtualization Technology based Boot Camp function like a Classic Environment.

BTW my iMac is "PowerPC G5 inside" so I was left out in the cold. (T_T)

mac do windows,too

0005
Apple computer released Boot champ public beta at April 5, 2006.
I had no chance to buy Mac for my job because I use only Windows in my office work up to now. But I'm glad to get a chance to buy Mac, after this function. The only worry is point that the software vender who is developing Mac OS X and Windows version might make only Windows version.

On the other hand, Parallels Workstation 2.1 for Mac OS X public beta has been released. I cannot overlook this one.
The Parallels Workstation 2.1 uses Intel VT-x. The reason for "Virtualization" is that it is a technology that should be paid attention.
