Jan 6

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

First off thanks to all the feedback about the PocketPC and PocketFeed! You guys are great. 🙂

Second just an FYI, I offically registered to take both of the A+ exams on Jan 6. Seeing as how I forked out $139 per exam on this, I’m thinking I’ve really got to pass these things! Luckily, I figured out that I can transcribe some notes and tables (like IRQ tables, DMA channels, or Socket Type/Processor table, the stuff that’s really hard for me to memorize!) and I’m syncing them to the PocketPC, so I’m studying and learning to use my new gadget all at once.

Anyway, you’ll excuse me if I get involved pretty heavily in A+ stuff and don’t do much work around the site for awhile, won’t you?

    I’m feeling it this morning. I shouldn’t have stayed out so late last night, but it was all good fun. I’m just getting my caffeine fix from the free in-room coffee maker before heading out to Fargo/Moorhead. It’s only about 7 hours so that’s not too bad. Plus with a one-month old, I doubt Jen…

    You may think that last post sounded a bit paranoid, but ask yourself this. Assuming that this information was pulled from a press release, someone who wrote that press release decided to throw usenet and IRC out there as havens for illegal file swappers. Someone with enough knowledge of the internet to go there and…
