Harlan Ellison Presents Dashboard

At the 1993 WorldCon in San Francisco, the program booked Harlan Ellison (at that time, the last angry middle aged man) into a tiny room for a reading. The room filled, and there were plenty of angry fans.

Eleven years later at WWDC, the session on Dashboard was booked into a large room, just not large enough. Plenty of upset developers caught outside, but fortunately, the organizers held a repeat of the session this evening.

I was too tired to catch the repeat, so I read the documentation on the train home.

Someone asked me if the striked sentence in the above was an editorial comment on Dashboard. It’s not, it’s bad editing, and a failed analogy on my part. Sorry about that. I’m impressed with Dashboard.
