Using Macs

I refer you all now to the truth about switching , a nice little blog post that is refreshingly clear of hype and hyperbole. Now that we're all on the same page, on to my additional commentary. Too true. It's a lot more friendly, though, than Read More...

2006 is the Year of the Outage

It's been an awfully long time since I last posted, hasn't it? As you may have guessed by now, it is because of, yet again, another computer outage at home. In this case, my Windows domain controller hard drive died. Dead. Kaput. Spins No More. Read More...

Back!

Boy howdy, that was quite an excessively long break.That'll teach me to patch my servers! You see, back in late August, I was being a good server admin and making sure all of my servers had the latest patches on them. The last server I updated was my Read More...

Take that, you bastards!

Well, I'm not writing yet (as was my intention on getting up) but after eating breakfast and having some cola, I found the ambition to perform a couple of administrative tasks on my network. One of them turned out to be incredibly simple. I complained Read More...
