Some follow-up

Looking through these old posts, it seems there are a few things I wanted to leave some follow-up on.

Location, Location, Location

First, regarding my angst over Location X, I did finally break down and pay for it, primarily because I got sick of waiting for Automator to start up every time I needed to reconfigure my settings. With a nifty status bar menu, switching location-specific settings is supremely easy.

Location X still needs to start up Apple Mail in order to change its settings, though. So it’s not perfect.

Inert Detritus

As you can probably tell by the fact that this weblog is not named Inert Detritus, I’ve decided against going with that name. It’s not really me, and it looked like it was facing come stiff competition from more professional bloggers than myself.

I’ve divested myself of all my SGI equipment, save the original Indigo2 that I got for free. It’s holding my floor down under one of the tables in my office at work.

RIP, MiniMate

The logic board in the MiniMate started causing all manner of hellish FireWire problems. Since I had (a) voided the warranty by taking it apart for the review, and (b) bought it for a reasonable enough price, I’ve simply taken the hard drive and put it into a MacAlly aluminum FireWire/USB2 case and put the MiniMate in my go-away pile. Sad, but true.

Paper Wait

I never got around to doing anything more than thinking about building a web app for the Kernel Panic Linux Users’ Group.
