Hobbit Titles Announced

EXTRALIFE - Hobbit Movie Titles Announced

The Hobbit and The Golden Voyage of Sinbad were two of the first movies I remember watching as a kid. I watched it at a friend's house that I was visiting on a play date around the age of 4 - I even made my mother wait to take me home until it finished. It is the first story I can remember that really resonated with me and has lost little of its magic in the 33 years since that first viewing.

I'm a bit excited to see it done on the big screen, live action. Peter Jackson has proven ability with the Lord of the Rings trilogy, one of my favorite movie adaptions of all times.

I very much look forward to revisiting Middle Earth once again. Maybe this time, my kids will be the ones making me wait until the movie is over.

You realize you've been doing things either just a little less efficiently or outright wrong and you just need to make a jump into something different... I hit this point over the last year and finally had the guts to make a major change. Yes, I bought a Mac Book Pro. Some background: I've been a Windows (and DOS before that) user since roughly the 5th grade (that would be 1984/1985-ish, eeek) and part time Linux user on and off since 1994.  Other than two years in college, I've used those platforms (and a little Solaris) exclusively -- that's 25 years of experience.  Twenty-five years of learning shortcuts, time savings, and overall comfort on a computing platform. All that experience, shaken up and shelved for now.  Well, sorta.  This is what I think so far: Pros: I LOVE the hardware.  Seriously. Dual video cards (one for low power, one for high performance) Upwards to 8 hours of battery life...
