Hello, my friend. How are you today? You are looking wonderful!

Oh -- you are looking at my office. Well, I must explain. You see, I am working today with our partner company Intel. VERY important partner. They make hardware that makes our Video & Audio software run FAST. I am sitting here with the bleeding edge of laptop PC technology -- the HP Compaq NX 9420, which has the new Intel Centrino dual-core processor. Production Studio smokes on this thing. I got to sit here and do press briefings all day, right in front of the bed that John F. Kennedy & Marlyn Monroe allegedly hooked up in. According to hotel staff, the President was enjoying some private time in that bed with Ms. Monroe one afternoon when the First Lady returned early from her shopping trip, forcing Marilyn to hide on the roof until it was safe to make an escape.

Urban legends aside, this was a fun event, held in the penthouse of the Farimont hotel in San Francisco's posh Nob Hill area. Intel always throws unique events, and this was no exception -- the room I had my "bedside office" in was also populated by other Intel partners such as Skype, a telephone-over-IP service.

There's the room looking in from outside, and here's a shot on the balcony with the crew from Intel.

Today was fun, but I'm looking forward to a few days in the office for a change.
