Okay.. nevermind. Everything I said that was bad about WHS? It’s worse on this thing. I don’t get the occasional pause or hiccup - I get complete loss of network connectivity whenever I use the thing. It seems that whenever I try access anything for extended periods of time, the NAS box just drops off […]

Not content with just 1.5TB, and a case poorly suited for the task, I decided to go on an upgrade spree. I’ve been meaning to make a dedicated fileserver for ages now, and when the Windows Home Server beta rolled my way, it only strengthened my resolve to get all those goddamn drives out […]

So it’s no small secret that I have a thing for Microsoft beta programs. One such program, that was announced a few weeks ago, is the Windows Home Server beta. Microsoft are essentially pushing this thing as all the cool technologies that geeks have had in one form or another for a while now, […]

Fuck Ubuntu.
A word of warning if you’re like me, and own a Dell notebook. Do not install any version, variation or anything related to Ubuntu on it. It WILL fuck your machine good and proper.
What am I talking about? The as-of-yet unfixed bug number #43745 in the Linux kernel for Ubuntu which corrupts the real-time […]

I haven’t really mentioned this on the site, except the update on the hardware page, but a little over two months ago, I bought myself a notebook. A Dell Inspiron 640m, to be exact (which you may know in the US as the Inspiron E1405). I primarily got it as a portable media & Windows-based […]

Oh hay.. this site’s still here. I guess I’d better actually post some crap in the unlikely event I actually receive viewers.
So.. what’s been going on since the past two months I’ve posted here? Well, the Conroe came, saw, and kicked some ass. ePenis forum posters rejoiced as they tweaked like mad to get the […]

I decided to pick up a few games for Xboxen over the past couple of weeks, so I thought I should offer some insight into how that went.
Before that, I’d just like to mention a few things about the system. The coolest thing is the whole interface, and community deal. Ultimately, the Xbox 360 is […]

I really haven’t much to say right now, but I do need to make the occasional post on here sometimes, to ensure I’m not completely alienating the one or two people who occasionally visit (myself included in that figure).
So yeah.. I bought an Xbox 360 last week. The not so immensely massive upgraded version of […]

So.. by my count so far, this makes it the third CPU upgrade story since the Mac mini came out.. or fourth if you count the mysterious guy on some mailing list, who claims he has a Merom and it works flawlessly in the mini.
I’d just like to first state that doing this is a […]

…or I’d update the site as promised all about the wonderful things I’ve waste^H^H^H^H^Hspent money on, lately.. but I’ve been too busy sleeping and watching magical girl anime.
I really do promise to tell you all about the latest addition in my family of binary digit calculators, but I figured that as she is right now, […]
