    Yes, everybody has to get into the act. Even Radio Shack is offering pre-orders of Halo 3.

    RVideo’s saying goodbye to Halo 2 with a final set of panoramas – these are simply gorgeous. Take a look. (If you’re on a slower connection, try the JPEGs – quality is almost identical, filesize is MUCH smaller.) (Louis Wu 15:23:18 UTC)

    I’m now starting to make some of the functional changes on the site enabled by the last Drupal software upgrade. The first change is probably the most basic.
