An afternoon with betabug and chocolate.
My Macbook is still cold after walking through Athens streets, but I can say that I had a nice and relaxing afternoon. Today I met betabug. Another computer guy (or should I say geek) from abroad living, working and enjoying Greece. The afternoon started in “Megaro Mousikis” when the sun was almost set (see the picture above :P). We went to a cafeteria hidden in the park near the metro station. It was an unexpected place, new for me, and I enjoyed the place and the conversation. About life, work, food, computers, games, programming.
It was really relaxing just be there in the middle of a really green area, having a chocolate and sharing the time with a new friend.After that we went down Sofias Avenue to drink something in Kolonaki. We seated outside, because inside was full and noisy, but outside was a bit cold. Not cold enough to stop us to open a computer, connect to the internet and write an entry in betabug’s blog.
To finish the afternoon, nothing like starting the evening with a nice meal in a place which name I don’t remember. It is in the area of Exarhia. You should ask him, because the food was really nice and the ambient was quiet enough to enjoy the food. The conversation: about computer things. And as always when you talk with a Mac user here (in Greece): Rainbow. Or how to suck money from Apple users, destroy Apple’s brand in Greece and not be sued and even rewared by Apple for that. About rewared, I don’t know really, but Apple haven’t moved a finger to fix the situation here.
Now at home, with the heating switched on, I’m thinking in preparing a new coffee I got this morning in the supermarket. It’s with vanilla flavour, hmmmm!!!

How fun! I was also looking forward to meeting you in November, that is before we moved and some chaos was unleashed in our lives. Some things don’t change though. My poor PB is still sick, and we are not online long enough thanks to OTE’s mistake to download any program to run a fix or recovery. I’m glad you had a great time and posted a new article

@Kat: Still broken?! A PB is a nice tool. We have to meet to fix that or at least to take a look. Perhaps Sasha and/or other (known) mac users want to meet, have a coffee and take a look.

LOL, I have this image of Mac doctors standing around the sick patient.
