Lack of communication

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

We didn’t get back from the in-laws until late yesterday evening. With all the wedding stuff and all the various family members to visit with (They are a big, Southern family, there’s a bunch of them, and they all love to tell stories!!) I never even fired up the laptop all weekend. In fact, I did a quick scan of email last night before bed, which was the only online activity I had between leaving work Friday and arriving this morning.

Angela asked if I was getting jittery from lack of online activity, but you know, it actually felt good to be away for a time. 😉

    Various stuff I noticed while catching up: Walmart now has the Microtel PC’s with Mandrake. Now, this may prove to be more of an in-road to the consumer market than the Lindows version was, since Lindows isn’t even a finished OS yet! It’ll be interesting to see if this catches some market share or if…

  • A milestone

    We’ve reached a milestone on this little blog. According to my copy of Table Editor, Eric Maynard left the 1000th comment on this blog earlier this evening. I am simply amazed.
