Oh crap

Been busy working and trying to squeeze in time for my driving license studies so I havent really gotten the time to write here. Spent the last friday evening playing Wii on the big screen with some co-workers. Man my right arm is sore now. :D

Nonthing new on the computer front. A couple of new servers at work to replace the old one, im thinking of dedicating it to Xen so we just can play around. Everybody has their own "computer" to setup things on.

Over and out, im going to get ready for the feast of a thousand hams.

A real swedish xmas dinner

Yesterday the whole company and their better halfes went out for a great big xmas dinner. Many kinds of herring. :D
One of the coolest things about the evening was the old school locomotive driven by steam. The rented the whole train and we swooshed on through the night in the beautiful landscape of Scania.

A new toy

Been looking for a while for something new to keep me occupied and I think I've found it.

This little baby is ordered and hopefully it will entertain me, and possibly I will learn something. I have a idea that I wish to make reality but more about that later if I succeed. ;)

In other news, hopefully I will get my Wii this week. Stupid think sold out to fast even though I was quite early to preorder.

Back to basics

Been alot of downtime for me between blog posts. I went to Stockholm for the freenix2006 conference and it was nice. Looking forward to EuroBSDCon2007 in Copenhagen. :-)

Gotten myself some new hardware for my workstation, Intel Core2Duo 1GB of ddr2 ram and a geforce 7600GT. Not top notch stuff but a good start for my computer. Going back from laptop to a real workstation cause i need the raw power when developing. Of course i installed the GNU/Linux distribution Gentoo on it. Its still the best distro out there imo. Not for new users but if you have the time and interest to tinker with almost everything.
And for the motherboard i tried something new. Always been in favor for asus motherboards but this time I tried something new. MSI P965 Platinum and its really good. :)

Lots of stuff happening at my job. New office right in the city center of Malmö. Which means a new network, servers, routers and gateways to setup but everything should be up and running by now.
