  • Review of Windows XP Home Edition Upgrade

    This review originally appeared on Amazon. See more reviews by Dan. Windows XP Home Edition Upgrade, CD-ROM Rating: โญโญโญ Use Windows XP Pro
    The XP Suite of Operating Systems IS good, but why go for the Home edition? It's fundamentally crippled. Most of the code remains the same as for the Professional edition, but the โ€ฆ

  • Easter Break

    I'm sitting doing some work on a web site for one of our clients, and Reb (you know, the ex-girlfriend) sends me another text message:

    As it happens, I won't be. I could go visit my family for Easter, but this would result in two things happening:

  • April Fools Day

    April Fools Day has always been an oppertunity for me to get back at the ineffective dickheads that are the management of Penbryn Hall at the University of Wales, Aberystwyth. This year was no exception. Building upon the success of my last big prank, Penbryn-Hall.co.uk, a spoof 'official' site which almost got me expelled from โ€ฆ
