I've been back online for about a week now, but I haven't posted. I'd like to say I've been busy, but that would be a bit of a lie.
I have been busy this weekend though. I have managed to install Windows and Linux on my mac in a triple boot situation. It's taken me pretty much the whole weekend to get the Linux working to the point it is now. That is, I can log on, the video drivers are correct and I can connect to the inernet via ethernet cable. Wireless isn't working and I think I need different drivers for the touch pad. I've had enough for one weekend though so I'm going to leave it until next week.
I'm running Windows Vista on the other partition. It's okay, but yesterday I went to Laura's house to have a laptop party (haha, I'm such a nerd) and I took over a bunch of files to share with her. It took us a lot of work to get the damn file sharing to work, but in the end, files were shared and we were most happy.
In other news this week, we got Nodephone setup here so we can stop paying for phone calls through our voice service provider. I also managed to hook up our cordless phone and get the answering machine working. The only problem is, when you are talking on one of the handsets, the answering machine wont work, because it thinks someone has already answered it. I don't know if I'm going to be able to find a sollution for this one, we might have to get another answering machine.
