10+ YEARS


Over 10 years ago, I wrote my first blog post. Since then, I've authored books, had kids, traveled the world, found Trish and blogged about it all.

Keynote is a Monster

I bought Apple's Keynote for my upcoming presentations. As I began to install it - the System Requirements caught my eye:

  • Power Mac G3 or G4, PowerBook G4, eMac, iMac or iBook with 500 MHz or faster processor (Power PC G4 recommended)
  • Mac OS X v 10.2 or later (Mac OS X version 10.2.6 recommended)
  • 128 MB of RAM (512 MB recommended)
  • 8 MB of video memory (32 MB recommended)
  • 1 GB of available disk space

1 GB of disk space?! Jeez - this sucker is huge! There's really no reason to complain since I have plenty of space - this is just the largest install I've seen in quite some time.

What's wrong with Powerpoint? Apart from the price of course...

wtf wouldn't you just use open office. You must have money to burn.

I already have PowerPoint and I've used it quite a bit in the past - but I've never really been impressed with a PowerPoint presentation. However, whenever I've seen a Keynote presentation - I've always been wowed by it's cool transitions and smooth styles. I'm a sucker for eye candy.

Ryan - it was only $69 - that's a cheap piece of software in my book. Besides, I've never used Open Office, so why start now? ;-) Yeah, I should probably look into using it someday. Is its presentation software better than Keynote or PowerPoint though? I doubt it. I also heard it's slower than molasses in January on OS X.
