Parallels is now “officially†released. Having done a “pre-order†I received my validation number this morning (yes, I would have preferred to have had it yesterday when the news first broke), but today’s OK too. Installed the “final release†package and my virtual PC came right to life. Nice product. For the next 30 days, you can get a copy of Desktop for Mac for $49.00 (a savings of $30 off what they say their full price will be on July 15th).
And this just in from our off-topic desk:
There’s now a webcam (operated by OxBlue) that will show near real-time updates of the construction site 
for the new Washington National’s baseball stadium. If I’m reading the charts correctly, this camera view is from beyond the outfield.
I think it would be kinda neat to save lots of these pictures and build a stop-action movie of the stadium’s construction–but I don’t have the time or patience for that. Perhaps I’ll write a script that grabs a photo around noon each day or something (of course, complicating the coding is the fact that the OxBlue image is done with Flash).
