Wish list done! - 2008/09/28 09:39 I finally got my shiny new 24" iMac which completes the wish list and joins my Mac setup including 3G iPhone, Macbook, Time Capsule, AppleTV and iPod touch. Confirming that I'm definitely no longer a PC.

I recently celebrated my 50th birthday ( if celebrate is the right word ) and decided as part of the evenings entertainment to dust off a guitar and do an acoustic set with my daughter.
The quality of the video recording of the night was pretty pants, so we played around with garageband for a couple of hours and added the result to some edited footage in iMovie.

The ATV was put to good use on the night via a HD projector and a 10 ft screen, the screensaver was a collection of about 150 photos from over the years and was certainly a talking point, but the one thing that did make me chuckle was opening presents the following day. To my surprise I received a pile of apple gift vouchers totaling £350! I have my little princess and my missus to thank for that.

If you fancy having a look it's here. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=1uCpKHWRX8E

Re:Wish list done! - 2008/09/29 13:04 Sounds like a rather nice way to turn 50. It was my birthday last Friday and did I get anything? Well yes we went to the Grandprix, but apart from that what did I get? Nothing from my cheap wife

Re:Wish list done! - 2008/10/02 09:06 It is my birthday on the 10th of october. I hope to get the 3G iPod. Is it any good? and can you cancel all the wireless signals so that you can use it to listen to music or watch video on a plane?

Re:Wish list done! - 2008/10/02 14:56 Hi Nick,
It was actually a great way to turn 50. There was about a hundred people at the party, we had a spit roast pig and a 4 ft chocolate fountain. The entertainment was provided by my two mates Tony and John who work as a Blues Brothers tribute (link to BB on a mission below).
I only wish that I had given some thought to videoing the event with something decent rather than relying on my crappy old DV camcorder.
Anyway in an attempt to polish a turd I've just gone out and bought Final Cut Express with my gift vouchers.

If I'd known that your birthday was so close to mine it would have strengthened my resolve to send you and Nicky invitations , I just thought that you might have been too busy trying to get out a new release of the Mac Show

p.s I've noticed that the Mac Show seems to coincide with a Tiki Bar release is your missus called Lala by any chance?
