Ah yes... the boss seemed pleased at my ability to occupy myself. I was told they use the 'ajax toolkit' from microsoft for their fancy controls.. so I spent a while playing with those... then I moved to multithreading this application that takes an hour and a half to chew through 950 records (I was told that is pretty fast)... no.. screw that.. it'll be mulithreaded and then do it in half the time.

I have been fanicully tossing the idea around about scamming a cheap intel mac and writing some iphone apps... that or suck up an 'google android dev phone' (300-400) to write some apps for that.

I think that would be nifty.
