I went to the Microsoft tech launch for Windows Vista in Novemeber where we all are suppoused to be getting a free copy of Home Premium (Soon enough too). However I’ve just seen the swag at the US launch party of Vista…. the difference in swag is quite a bit alright.
Its been a while since I’ve posted anything new and so long that its disappeared off my recent entry list in firefox.
So whats new in my life:
Leaving Cert Mocks start on the 5th of Feburary.
I. am. fucked. and yet strangely calm about it. Its just a piece of paper at the end of the day and there are always another way of getting to do the things you want. For college I’m looking at Computer Applications in DCU followed by Computing in DIT.
I got an email from Flightwise telling me that groundschool is starting shortly and I’m debating with my parents should I do it or not because it might impact on my leaving cert. Sometimes is so tempting to shout out NEWSFLASH DON’T CARE ABOUT THAT. I’M ALL ABOUT NOW AND THATS ABOUT 6 MONTHS AWAY.
I have some books on the way from Amazon of which one is the Cisco CCNA book. I’m hoping it will go along with the 2600 Router and Catalyst 2950 at the end of my bed and allow me to get a CCNA before the year is out.
I have yet to book my driving lessons which I should really do so I can get out on the road to be raped by the insurance company.
Robb is having his wedding reception on Saturday. Its finally here after all the planning etc. Congrats man!
Thats all I can think of for now but it appears Gavin has tagged me. Arses! I’ll come up with some new stuff to beat the curse.
I also have a beta invite to Joost and I really haven’t had much time to play about with it but can someone tell me what actually content is there? I see like the Paris Hilton channel but is there any channels which show the latest episode of my favourite shows like 24, Stargate (both), Prison Break etc?
Also nominations are open for the Irish Blog Awards. So pop on over and make your vote count!
For the odd person out there who is interested in installing Subversion using a external copy of apr/apr-util with BerkeleyDB you have to compile apr-util using –with-berkeley-db. This caused me a pain in my face for a good while until I found that in the changelog.
Appearently Microsoft are giving out fairly nice laptops to bloggers but now its seemed to turn into a huge ethics debate about should they keep them or not. And someone has gone off and made a list of bloggers who also got a laptop and what were they going to do with it, looks like the majority of them will keep the laptop and if I ended up in that situation I’d probably keep it too. If someone wants to send out free stuff to me then let them go ahead.
Hell 3000 people in Ireland are going to get their hands on a copy of Vista for showing up at the Technet event in Croke Park a few weeks back. However some people are changing their attitude about recieving gifts like Joel who is now no longer accepting anything.
Although odds are nobody will ever read this because looking at my Analytics account the hits on this site has dropped to zero.
See the title and my battery is about to die.
