What's it all about, Alfie?

A while back, I got some xray CDs from the hospital for Joseph and Liza and wanted to look at the images because I thought at least Joseph would find them interesting. My travels lead me to locate OsiriX - an incredible Open Source viewer of the DICOM images. Really quite amazing. Well... today they have released ver 3.0 of OsiriX for Leopard (10.5). It's 64-bit, got lots of new features, and in general looks again like it's an amazing feat of Open Source coding.

Now, I'll admit that when I start it I still get the indication "32-bit" in the About box, but again, I'm guessing that it's likely that the "64 bits" support is in some of the libraries as it's not really necessary for the GUI. Minor point.

In general, it's great to be looking at the work. It really is inspirational.
