[Geek] XP/DVD problem
Dunno if anyone can help, but I’ve got a problem with a new machine I’ve just put together. Its based around a little barebones system on an intel 865G chipset with 200Gb SATA disk and DVD-R drive on parallel ATA. Running XP Pro. The system seems to frequently hang when you insert a CD or […]

…and then there was bandwidth
At last the DSL connection here (at my parents house) is up and running – its so nice to have bandwidth again properly, for the first time since leaving Hornsey Road. Beyond that, not a lot to report here, contracts have been signed for my return to Tokyo, but they’re still sitting on my last […]
Just gotten back from sushidogs tea party, a thoroughly civilised affair, which will, doubtless, be documented by others better than I can hope to do here. It was good to put some faces to names, though, and some fine buns and scones prepared by our wonderful hostess. I knew I was in the right place […]
