The cake is a lie.

Finally bought and finished Portal.  I have to say that it was one of the best games I've ever played. 

To tell the truth, I'm just happy to have enough free time to play a game.  Now if I could only get some sleep.

 

What I'm listening to: Still Alive from Portal

A few upgrades to my work box...

8GB of RAM is fantastic!  It's made it so that I no longer dread having to work on my 32-bit Virtual PC Version of Vista for all of my old apps that think Vistax64 isn't really windows.

Visual Studio 2008 Team Foundation Server Install is killing me

WindowClipping

This is my 5th attempt at reinstall.  Different errors every time.  This error is the most ridiculous.  Of course I have a compatible version of SQL server installed.  And yes, I followed every single step of the TF Installation Guide.

I don't understand why this install has to be so painful?  Why can't you just log in with an administrative password, shove in the disk, and say go?

Seriously though, does anyone really use ODF?

clock May 22, 2008 12:44 by author nlinus

I don't know anyone that uses ODF for anything other than playing around.  Businesses don't want to mess with that kind of stuff.

In fact, I'm trying to convince some folks to use open office as an alternative to pirating MS office right now and that's not going very well. Office is so familiar to them.  It's hard for them to get their heads around the fact that they don't need to use MS Office to produce MS Office compatible files.

Wowsa. So I finally got my TCP/IP issue resolved

clock May 20, 2008 16:01 by author nlinus

So if I had paid closer attention in TCP/IP addressing school I would have known that everything was A-Okay.

Part of the problem is that I've always connected into a router that was managed by the ISP.  This time I had to configure the router that connected into the gateway.  It was all so confusing.

Goin a bit nuts here over a TCP/IP issue

clock May 17, 2008 19:31 by author nlinus

My ISP provisioned me with some static IP addresses for my business that are in one subnet with an "assigned router address" in the same subnet.  The "WAN Serial Address" for the router that they've given me is in a different subnet.  I can't figure out how to configure the router.

The assigned addresses are in a CIDR block a.b.c.d/26 whereas the gateway is in a.b.c.d/30.  I don't understand how to set it up so I can use the assigned addresses with that gateway.

Hyper-V. It just works.

clock May 16, 2008 23:39 by author nlinus

Sweet. I just moved a Virtual PC from my desktop PC over to a 2008 server with Hyper-V.  There were no instructions for "importing" or opening the VPC, so I just created a new machine in the Hyper-V Manager chose the VHD file from the old machine and BAM it started right up.
