Dvorak, Everyman and the Devil's eve


To start with a quote :-
The Macintosh uses an experimental pointing device called a ‘mouse’. There is no evidence that people want to use these things. I dont want one of these new fangled devices.
San Francisco Examiner, John C. Dvorak, 19 February 1984
A completely different Dvorak came up with a completely different input device for computers, which I'm experimenting with now. For now, it's slow going, but I'm picking up speed exponentially.

I just finished Everyman, by Philip Roth, and my god was it good. More about that later, when I can type faster.

And I seemed to have picked up a north American habit of carving pumpkins on the devil's eve.

At first we're good mates and all chummy...

but by the next day relations had become sour,

Is it just me, or does he even look a little sadder?
