I tried to build a HelloWorld iPhone Application on my iBook (PowerPC arch) sucessfully. Here comes the instruction:
1. make sure your iBook is running 10.5
2. download and install the iPhone SDK and Xcode (I’m using iPhone SDK 2.2 and Xcode 3). You can find some tips of how to install on iBook with Google search.
3. find some simple iPhone Example source code (ex. iCodeBlog)
4. You might meet some error while press build and go, just follow the tips from here
5. Now enjoy your iPhone developing… :-)

MRI

No Comments, Life, by jimmyliao.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive medical test that helps physicians diagnose and treat medical conditions. (refer: RadiologyInfo). My right knee get hurt three weeks ago and I took the MRI in NTUH this week. The result shows that I have ACL(前十字韌帶) and LCL(外側副韌帶) grade one injury. I think I need to take more rest in this Chinese New Year and hope recover soon!

iBook G4 on hand

1 Comment, Mac, iBook, iPhone, by jimmyliao.

Today I got one iBook G4 1.3 GHz from my friend. I know it’s might be a out-of-date product but there are some reasons to have it.
1. It’s the classic Apple product in PowerPC architecture.
2. Its weight less than another laptop – T61p.
3I don’t have any user experience on Mac before, I think this is the cheapest way for me to join this Mac world.

Hopefully, I might use this new laptop to make my life more easily. :-)
