Jim's Hobbies Page
This page is supposed to contain my hobbies. For now, I am using it as a launch page to talk about my experiences moving to a mac. Some of the information I have gathered is probably pretty mundane, but other pieces of information are good for me to document because they were hard to come by. As time marches on, I will update this page with my photography, Star Trek, and computer hobbies.
