Let the weekend begin

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I did get the Red Hat 8.0 iso’s downlaoded (all 5 of them) and 4 of the 5 have been burnt to CD, so I should probably get an attempt at installing on the new machine in this weekend. Tentatively, this is scheduled for tomorrow night, after dinner at my parent’s house.

The weekend has gotten off to a pretty good start though, as Brad and I did meet up at the Apple Store tonight and grabbed some food over at Max and Erma’s in the Easton Town Center. We had a good time and it was good to meet up with someone and put a real-life person to the blog. Hopefully we can get together again if Brad’s ever in town or we are ever up in Youngstown. 🙂

    Personal Tech update

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 2 minutes

    Just an update on some things I’ve been doing. Angela already wrote about the Roomba, so I’ll leave that alone, other than to say, as a gadget type of guy, I’m fascinated by watching it work. (Of course, the whole point is that it works while you’re doing something else, so I need to break…

  • How bad is it?

    I had another post written up here about work today, but then I realized that some of the information in it hadn’t been made public knowledge yet. While no one I work with reads this blog, outside of my wife, and I don’t give out the name of the place I work, there is still…

  • Segway

    Saw my first Segway today. A cop was riding it through the Centennial Olympic Park in downtown Atlanta. Angela actually pointed it out to me, she’s turning into such a good little geek wife. 🙂 Now that I’ve seen one up close, I can honestly say that my opinion hasn’t changed, it’s a neat toy,…

  • Lengthy conversations

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    I’ve had these sorts of conversations before, but in a smaller company, like everything else, it’s usually not as frequent an occurrence as it is now. Anyone who’s worked supporting users knows exactly the sort of conversation, and while we all appreciate the fact that the user is curious and wants to learn, we all…

  • Blogger stuff

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    I didn’t notice it earlier but Angela just pointed out the new stuff in the blogger interface. Now posting operates a bit more like Word, I can change fonts, colors and sizes, I can center text and there are keyboard shortcuts for all of that stuff. Not sure how much I’l really use this, but…
