It sounds like you'll be keeping some pretty good company at your new job - well done Alan!

No one seems to have noted yet that Steve Jobs gives a Noble Laureate his personal laptop AND IT DOESN'T WORK!!!

How weird is that? I've got an apple 1 that I had to assemble myself. It's over thirty years old and still works fine. Anybody for a game of pong?

That is great. It is always amazing to me when I see extraordinary people away from cameras, and such how normal they really are.

**Rigged** · 5th March 07, 11:04 PM

Alan, it's been a long time coming. Congrats, man.

Congratulations Alan. Sounds like your in good company, but I do expect that you will start working on getting these people to see the light and start wearing proper attire. I would pay to see Jobs in a Loud McCleod

**Alan H** · 6th March 07, 10:30 AM

I'm going to let them see me in trousers this week. No point in shocking everybody the first couple of days. but next tuesday I'm wearing a kilt! We shall see, but I bet any money it'll be a no-brainer.
