Phantasy Star Online Episode IV Released

Now that the Beta has ended on the PC version of Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst, they have released a whole new episode with new levels and monsters to kill. If you’re a PSO fan like me, this is a welcome diversion. The game is free to download, 15 days of free play and less than $10/month after that. Love it!

Install Tiger in Target Disk Mode

So, my friend bought an old Firewire iBook, the very colorful ones, this one is blue. Anyhow, he also bought the latest OS X, Tiger, and it only comes on a DVD. But I was able to install it using the DVD drive on my iBook. Here is how I did it.

  1. Make sure you have the latest firmware installed, you’ll need 9.1 installed to update the firmware. (link)
  2. Boot the old iBook in Firewire mode, hold down ‘T’ and power on the iBook.
  3. Connect a firewire cable between the two machines.
  4. Start the installer on the machine with the DVD drive.
  5. Choose the firewire disk as your install destination.

That’s it. When the install is done, you should be able to reboot the old iBook and it should be running Tiger. Not too slowly either. Hope this helps some people out there who don’t have DVD drives on their older Macs.

Public Service Announcement

This is brilliant. A public service announcement about cancer in men that actually makes you want to watch (if you’re a man). Nothing like a little sex to get the point across. Check it out, it is work safe.

I must say, it was a good day. Had a lot of work to do though, had to move that umbrella stand as the sun moved. Really tired, decided to have a nap. Hope you had a good Friday too.
