Google - Just a Test

Some of you may know this one: Google

Just kidin'... I am simply testing the JustBlogIt extension for firefox, and it seem to handle blogger blogs just fine. So, please, just ignore this one unless you are interested in the extension yourself. In that case, open the firefox extensions webpage, and look in the blogging section.

As always, take care!

Just a few more words on the new computer

Now the new PowerMac have been in the house for a good week. I just have to admit that the Apple people have done a very fine job!

First the hardware - it is simply great. Powerful, without much noise, rock stable, nice looking

Then the MacOSX. With just a few days tweaking, it start feeling like linux, maybe with a slightly nicer graphical appearance. I have all the programs I use on a regular basis already, except my mailer, evolution, but I can do without it, both the included Mail program and thunderbird can do a good job. I tested the first version of OSX a couple of years ago, and was not very satisfied with unix part of it, and not the stability either.

Now, it feels like unix, which mean I feel like home. And it is more stable.

If I just could tweak the Aqua "window-manager" to accept the keybindings I regulary use, that will be something. For an entertainment machine and some work at home, this computer can do the job anyway, but for doing real programming work, I will still stick to my linux :-)

New Computer in House

Hi there!

First of all, happy new year to all my faithful readers, take care out there!

This is just a quick notice to inform you that I have a new computer in house - a Dual 2.0Ghz G5 PowerMac. It's an awesome computer, I just have to say that. Even if it is not running linux (yet). Mac OS X is actually a good OS as far as my experience goes this far...

More on this later.
