A Developer's Journal; Solaris 10 #4

I brought it home. It's still in the box. It's setting in my living room steering at me and refuses to blink. I know I don't stand a chance of winning the steering game but I steer anyway eyes bloodshot I steer. It's all I can do with it at the moment. I have deadlines to meet and missing deadlines is bad for business so I can't cut into my dev time to play with the it. The clock is ticking, ticking, ticking. As I look away from my monitor to rest my eyes it catches my gaze. It steers at me and I steer back neither of us blinking while the clock ticks, ticks, ticks.
