All,
I have posted a couple of images from Wednesday's Mercury Transit.
It was definitely an experience!! Just before first and second contact, my G4 Powerbook
overheated, locked up, and then crashed. I had it in a box with a shade cloth so I could see
the screen. I have used this setup before, but I got busy "watching" the white light version
and forgot to uncover the box while I was waiting for first contact.
So I had to let it cool down for a couple of minutes before rebooting...
