I’ll be in the workshop

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Yeah it’s time to crack open the case on that laptop and replace the hard drive. It occurs to me that of all the HD replacements I’ve done over the last few years of working here, this will be the first time I’ve done one on a laptop. That’ll be something new and interesting to put under my “experiences” list, eh?

Anyway, I’ll be over next door in my “workshop” most of the day, probably won’t get caught up on reading blogs until tomorrow, or Thursday, or, well, never. *L*

    Thanks go out to Brad and Eddie for letting me know that Mozilla 1.3 was just released. Also thanks to Chris for letting me know that’s he’s running 1.2.1 and not having the same problem with the crashes. (Don’t we have such a helpful bunch around here?) Must be something on this PC. I’m going…

  • A Plus Notes

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 2 minutes

    Maddy left a comment asking about what I found most useful in preparing for the A+ exams. Here go a few thoughts: First, as I’ve told you before, I read two books. I would recommend reading at least one book covering the current versions of the exams, even if you’ve been working with PC’s for…

  • Busy, busy, busy

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    After a full, busy, weekend of a going-away party for a coworker on Friday night, into the OSU Spring Game Saturday with Andy and Kristen, into taking in The Interpretor with my wife and then a birthday party for my sister-in-law on Sunday, I’ve been greeted with just as crazy a Monday. (The difference, of…
