It’s over.
Finally we have a product that is finished. The deadline for everything being done was something like 4am tuesday night. I had to pick firefly up from the airport but I was back virtually till 12:30 or so, and I understand we finished everything up at 4:07am. Congratulations everyone. People were still in the office until the next morning dealing with the installer, image problems in various locations, and building ISOs, but we made the deadline of burning a bunch of disks by 11am or so.
After it was all done there wasn’t a whole lot of activity around the office. A lot of people just sort of hung out in The Nest watching Mars Attacks [archive.org link] (it was on) and flaking out on the couches. ScoobyD and Hillyup (and a couple of the techs) left (as they should have). The rest of the day consisted of quake, surfing aimlessly, and reading. I couldn’t come home at a decent hour due to going to the FVLUG [archive.org link], but it was nice to know that I was back in the old routine.
