back together

Well after the new pc purchase and getting used to windows Vista (which is shit so far) I am fairly much back together and ready to start developing again.

Took an age to setup the lamp server and mysql, php, apache, etc...

Welcome to Vista Lee. I still prefer 'EP' but my dear one bought me a laptop for xmas so my main computer is going to be outlawed once we get wireless. Now the problem will be getting everything transferred before she donates my computer to the local charity shop. I'm using an external hard drive to transfer everything over but it takes so long to move it all.
Have fun with Vista, it sure is quite different and like you i think its rubbish.

Our desktop, which is now about 8 months old and still pleasing me, came with Vista and, from a plodder's viewpoint, it was weird but I got used to it. Of course, I cracked it when it wouldn't let me load certain versions of software I use all of the time so we took it back and had the shop put Vista's predecessor back on!

Progress? Sigh.

As usual Microsoft release something not ready for market. I will give it another couple of weeks but I may end up back on XP, its taken me so long just to get this system near to where I want it and every problem has been due to Vista!

I love XP and don't really want to change.

"You were given the choice between war and dishonor.
You chose dishonor and you will have war."

(Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.)
