Thanks to Jeff Bohren and Pat Patterson for referring to Typealyzer, which I used to analyze this blog.  Apparently, my writing style would indicate that I have a “Thinker” (INTP) personality.  A brain activity diagram …

… was accompanied by a bit of explanation:

“The logical and analytical type. They are espescially attuned to difficult creative and intellectual challenges and always look for something more complex to dig into. They are great at finding subtle connections between things and imagine far-reaching implications.

“They enjoy working with complex things using a lot of concepts and imaginative models of reality. Since they are not very good at seeing and understanding the needs of other people, they might come across as arrogant, impatient and insensitive to people that need some time to understand what they are talking about.”

If any of this is anywhere near accurate, please accept my apology for my arrogant, impatient insensitivity to you all.

My last working hours yesterday were spent listening to presentations about Sun’s virtual desktop technology.  The first two hours this morning are dedicated to virtual server technology.  Being the word geek I am, I consulted dictionary.com to understand the meaning of the word “virtual”.  I found some interesting tidbits of information.  First, the source of “virtual”:

“from M.L. virtualis, from L. virtus ‘excellence, potency, efficacy,’ lit. ‘manliness, manhood’ (see virtue).”

Does this mean that in today’s information technology world, only real men use virtualization?

Or only that men are really imaginary: “Existing or resulting in essence or effect though not in actual fact?”
