Win7 Party

We had the Win7 party last night - well, we had a couple of cocktails and then went to the pub for the quiz - but you get the idea...

In order to impress my friends I invented a cocktail especially for the occasion - the BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) - I thought it fitting.

We came 2nd in the pub quiz, too many Hans Christensen Anderson questions...

Windows 7

...it's here - downloading Ultimate x64 (and x86 in case) from MSDN as we speak...

Floppy Disks

I found the most inventive use for floppy disks yet - look closely and you'll see the desk has been cured of wobbles by two of these little suckers...

Is this what they meant when they said Windows 3.11 would be more stable? 

Windows Home Server

With one exam gone and the other over in two days I have finally ordered my Windows Home Server (I was waiting so as not to distrupt my revision). I opted for a pre-built HP Mediasmart EX475 as it comes in a VERY nice looking box and has several useful extras included (such as an iTunes aggregator and server). Due to arrive tomorrow - I have also taken the liberty of ordering a 2GB RAM stick to up the measly 512MB it comes with ;)
