8-Core Mac Pro Leak at Apple UK Site

published on March 12th, 2007 . by joe

I would soooooooo love one of these.  I think I need money first though. :)

Apple’s UK Store leaks some information which suggests that 8-Core Mac Pros are coming soon.

When searching for “Mac” in the UK Apple Store, the listing for the Mac Pro is:

Mac Pro
Now quad-core or 8-core processing power.
Configure yours today.

Rumors that Apple would incorporate two of Intel’s Quad-core chips into a Mac Pro to produce an 8-core Mac Pro have been ongoing since late last year.

Wooden Backyard Roller Coaster

This looks fun.  I’m kinda curious how safe it is though.  According to the owner’s site, the roller coaster cost $5,500 to build, required 2,900 board feet of lumber, and can get up to a top speed of 20 mph.

Thin Living in Brazil

published on March 11th, 2007 . by joe

I don’t think I’d be able to live in such a narrow house.  I guess you must get used to it though.

Incredibly, this house is only 1 meter wide by 10 meters tall. Located in Madre de Deus Brazil, it only has 3 floors. Helenita, the designer and owner of the house is now living in it with no complains.
