So I am still waiting on the DVD drive 🙁 Purolator can’t even find it right now. I think their site might be down for maintenance or something. I am yet to even fire up the htpc yet. I might do that tomorrow just to make sure it posts then fill in my rebate forms……
So some updates
Truck tailgate got buffed out yesterday by my buddy. Looks very good. We might get away with it and a touch up pen. More to follow on that. Installing Mac OS X 10.6 on the Mac Mini again. I need to find something to do with it. It just gets new OS installed on it…
HTPC wireless keyboard and mouse test
So, Got a big box of parts today in the mail 🙂 everything but the dvdram drive. The big thing that I was worried about was the kingwin mouse and Targus wireless keyboard working together. Right now testing on the laptop with win7 64bit seems to be working. It will take a few days to…
Evernote
So, I know two updates in two days wow eh? The big thing today is I am pushing Evernote to all the computers/ iphone to keep track of stuff that doesn’t fit in e-mail. We will see how it goes. It looks pretty cool so far. It has been installed on the Mac G5, Office…
Installing Mac OS X Server
Hey everyone, 28 mins remaining, we will see what happens. It’s going onto an Intel late 2008 mac mini with 500 Gig hd and 5 gig’s of ram. I’ve never installed Mac Server, so we will see how it works and what it does. If it’s sweet, maybe need a mac server in the farm…

The long lost update
So, it’s been almost a month since the last update of the blog. We have upgraded the all the PC’s to Windows 7 64 bit. Which was a ton of ass pain. The new montherboard I picked up, Asus P5N-D didn’t like the 6 gigs of ram I had. So I got an Asus P5Q Pro…

Sorry about this
Grr… So, I really wanted to get some stuff done around here over the last few days. Sadly none of it happened. I wanted to make a newYouTube video. Set up WP to bring in said YouTube video… but none of it happened. This might have to wait till Christmas. Which kinda sucks. I don’t…
About the G5
So, The included superdrive in the Power Mac G5 was able to use and install using the DVD-DL 🙂 so… no video’s created using the screen capture website. I will have to find a use for that in the future. Tomorrow we will install the 2gig’s of RAM I have for it. That will bring…
