It took more than I expected, but this message is being typed on the newly-lobotomized iMac running Mac OS X 10.1!
Now, if only I could go back in time and tell myself two hours ago to update the firmware and fix the hard drive before trying to install X. That would have saved having to install OS 8.5 and OS 9 after I completely frobnicated the computer.
As in: it wouldn’t even boot. Thank god I know how to zap the PRAM.
Tomorrow (oops, I guess it’s today): configure MySQL, PHP and Apache.
