Kudos to Freewill, who pointed out a potentially interesting news clip from MacNN:

For those of you who can stomach rising with the sun, Steve Jobs is scheduled to give the MWNY Keynote address tomorrow morning at 9:00am EST. For those of you with a fast internet connection (and no satellite with which to watch the live broadcast), you can catch the webcast and see if the rumors are true... I hope my 33.6 is up to the task, but if any of you speed viewers see anything interesting, give me a shout (just in case).

Still not Blam related, but of interest to Mac gamers in general... 3Dfx has released their generic Voodoo2 drivers, earlier than expected, with which Mac users can use just about any Voodoo2 card out there. A few Badlanders were playing with them, and initial reports are good. Plus, Voodoo2 cards are nice and cheap now...

Personally, I'm holding out for the Voodoo3 drivers, but no date has been given on those, and I've heard murmurings that they're months off... hmm.

Calm before the storm, I hope. Not much new stuff today... Marathon's Story has some info on the Action Sack release, fixed up a peculiar bug in the forum, put off dissecting the last poll yet again... heh. Let's hope MWNY gives us something to do.

Big kudos to darkus, of Onicore, for passing along this little tidbit:

Rex, as the man Tuncer states on IMG:

What I'm really looking forward to is the Steve Jobs keynote. I've learned that a few game companies will be showing off some hot new games at the keynote but I'm prohibited by saying which ones. I can guarantee that one of them will be a major shock and it will come from a company we all know and love. Care to take a guess as to who?

No sooner than I had posted a plea for MWNY reporters than two people stepped up to the plate. Kudos, and third portions of my soul, go to plague and Wightmeat, who will both be on hand at MWNY on our behalf. Cameras in hand, they'll be keeping an eye out for those of us unable to attend, and with luck we should get some interesting pictures and reports from this Expo.

Thus far, two people have mentioned problems reading this page due to a crash, apparently on Netscape (version and system configuration uncertain). If you're having the problem (and somehow seeing this), please let me know so I can try to find out what it is. And in the off chance you actually know what's going from (from looking at the source), let me know ASAP so I can amend this fault.

With MWNY coming up, and myself being a border, a continent, and several hundred dollars away from it, I'm looking for an intrepid, camera equipped MWNY attendee willing to take a few shots and write a jot down a few things, and send them in that we less fortunate folk might experienced the expo. If you fit the bill and can spare the time during the event, drop me a line, and we can haggle over what percentage of my soul I'll have to trade for your pictures.
