Pocket PC

Since Andy brought it up, I will point out that the Dell Axim has been working fine for me, but I haven’t been doing anything interesting with it. This weekend, however, I’ll be giving it quite the workout, as I’ll have a Pocket Streets map of downtown Baltimore, I’ll be taking a look at a program called Metro that helps you figure out how to get around by train in major metro areas, and I’ll be using it to get a better look at the pictures we take with our digital camera. Perhaps even to store some if we run out of space on our respective memory cards.

Trips like this are one of the biggest reasons I wanted one. The other, of course, is being able to take my network documentation with me around or outside of the office. I do that, but it’s really not interesting enough to write about, is it? 🙂

I’ll have more interesting things to share next week.

    I’m still working on the stats bug, nothing seems to be working for it right now. I do know when XP users view this page because of a free one-page counter from Bravenet, but you’re still not showing up on the regular stats. I’ll keep trying though! In the meantime I downloaded copies of Amphetadesk…

    Now, keep in mind that I’m not the biggest fan of social software. I don’t really find it all that useful, but I didn’t say anything about Orkut while everyone else was talking about it, because I hadn’t ever actually tried it. Last night Josh was kind enough to send me an invite, so I…

  • Never mind that

    Forget what I said in the last post, Yahoo has apparently decided that new groups get the ads at the top. Big old flashing, intrusive ads too, yeech! So I deleted that group and started one over at Topica. Same deal, you can subscribe over there in the left margin. I’ve set the list to…

  • Knoppix

    Oh yeah the Knoppix CD has been burned and I did do a quick boot using it on my work machine, just to make sure I had a good CD. The setup didn’t find any soundcard. I’ve yet to have any Linux install configure the integrated audio on any of my PC’s that have that….
