This page provides a fairly comprehensive listing of tools I am currently using.

Treo 600 Palm Phone running version 4.1. This phone is my brain's backup. It is my only phone, having dropped the landline in 2001. G3 compatability, a 256 MG SD Card, on-board MP3 player, camera, video player, stowaway folding keyboard,  upwards of 56K wireless internet browsing capability, and a host of other peripheral bits of hardware and software make this my computer away from home. When the term "sexy" is applied to hardware, this is the kind of bleeding edge device to which it is applied. My only regret was in not holding out for the 650 model, with Bluetooth support, allowing me to don a borgian, wireless headset. Sony Vaio Multimedia Desktop with 256 MG of RAM running Windows ME. This is a fine media workhorse and has enabled me to churn out a sizeable body of content since it was purchased in 2001. Not as fast as the blazing machines available today, but still possesses ample processing power for a majority of my video, animation, browsing, and development needs. Many have asked why I've not updated the operating system to XP or Longhorn or something else. My response is that while Windows 98/ME is far from a perfect OS, all the other hardware and software on the machine plays fairly nicely with the operating system and if something isn't broken, there is no sense in fixing it. This PC functions well with ME and the arguably few benefits potentially derived from XP or newer do not nearly justify "upgrading" the OS.  Sony Digital 8 Camcorder. Like the Sony Vaio, this is a stout little workhorse. I have taken hundreds of hours of personal and professional footage with this all purpose device. I also possess several peripheral devices (tripods, external mics, filters, etc) that permit me to most fully leverage this practical tool. The battery (purchased with the original unit in 2002) is a trifle tired these days, but that is inevitable. Everything else on this machine works flawlessly.  Purchased for me by a thankful client, my Minolta Dimage G500 while still merely a competent consumer grade digital camera, gets the job done. Utilizing an SD card (my removable media of choice), providing the photographer with a great deal of flexibility,  and backed up by tripods, an external master/slave flash, and other gewgaws, there are few pictures this camera is not capable of capturing. Next on the list of tools is a true digital SLR, like the Nikon D70, with the full of compliment of lenses. In the meantime, my Minolta is just fine.

No, I am not the famed film director. Though aspiring actresses are welcome to contact me.
