8/24/08(SUN:70º:Pty.Cloudy Becoming Cloudy Late Morning)Up @0630: Straightened wash-tent on patio: Coffee w/light breakfast: Fed cats: Mowed frontages: Trimmed w/cycle: Called Patrick: Adj.sw-ant.on pecan tree: Tied up sml.mimosa tree to util.bldg's.storm anchor post: Cleaned mower: Synchronized to iBook & ck'd.e-mail & weather: Posted LJ & commented to Mel~: Fed cats: Decided to make screen-shots of Connie's Arkansas DVD(couldn't find any software on mac-mini to do it,so I used the old sony mavica 1.3mp writing to floppys[slow work,but it works{finished 1s.session around midnight}]): Showered on patio: Ate in Casita17: Asleep soon thereafter..
The Mac Grab application, as well as the command-shift-2, 3 & 4 keyboard snapshot shortcuts, don't work with the Apple's installed DVD player. Had to dust off & charge batteries for the old Sony 1.3 mega-pixal camera and use it for the screen-shots. This 1st.generation camera writes to floppy disks using the disk drive built into the camera itself. It makes the same grinding and popping sounds of all floppy drives when it writes to a disk. In high-resolution (find) mode, a double sided floppy can only contain 4 to 6 .jpgs depending on the complexity of the scene taken. This varation is mainly an artifact of the fining-software that Sony used to boost the rendering of it's rather paltry 1.3 mPx image sensor.
