DIE AOL!

March 28th, 2006

I HATE AOL with a passion. AOL HighSpeed is the suckiest service ever. Having to open AOL is absurd. It’s even more complicated when you want to connect a Mac, in which the software won’t connect. I can’t imagine what would happen with Linux. I’ve talked to about 8 people at AOL now. All passing [...]

RoadRunner Sales Support

March 27th, 2006

I have been trying to set up a RoadRunner Lite service for a clients mother. The RoadRunner sales people are idiots. I have explained several times now that the service is here in Winter Haven, and the bill is going to Colorado. They do not seem to be able to understand this. I talked to [...]

The Xiph Fish

March 19th, 2006

I’ve decided that when I go running, I’d like to listen to music. Well, my music library (actually, its mostly Jessica’s CD’s) is in OGG format. I also run Linux. This limits my choices for an OGG player. However, I do believe I have found one that would be alright for me. It’s a Samsung [...]

Goofing Off

March 18th, 2006

I am avoiding work today (obviously, I can’t stop posting…). But anyway, I’ve been playing with Inkscape, and have worked on coverting logos to SVGs… just for fun.

Oh by the way…

I saw this truck while going to Winter Haven. I do believe I have to agree with him. Nextel sucks.

Vacation Slideshow to Bore You

March 18th, 2006

I have uploaded the pictures for my two mini-vacations:
St. Augustine
Clearwater Beach
I still need to work on the captions a little bit. I am also posting this one for Jessica, the Grammar Nazi:

Bad Memory

March 15th, 2006

On all the computers* that I have worked on, I have never had to deal with a STOP error that had to do with “bad memory” (other than one that I installed that was bad to begin with). Today, for the first time, a STOP error starting showing up on a computer because the chip [...]

Va-Ca!… Over

March 13th, 2006

Well, my week vacation is over. And the day after I get back… right back to work. I was feeling it at the end of the day too… I was about to fall asleep. Today has been hectic as well. In fact, it is going to be pretty hectic till Thursday so far. I’ve got [...]

Decent Mac

March 4th, 2006

I’ve actually got a decent older Mac now. It an iMac slot loading, the DV Special Edition. Its the graphite color. It has a 400MHz processor (I could buy something that would upgrade to a 550 G4). I stuck two 256MB RAM modules that I bought for another computer that didn’t work. And I found [...]
