business vista uptake slow

Comments, The site, by Paul Godden.

This slashdot article is interesting, highlighting the 2 problems businesses feel hamper their uptake of Windows Vista into their IT infrastructure. Namely the patch model, and the application incompatibility.

Yeah, I know this isn’t exactly “tech” or “science” or anything, but I thought “It’s almost the New Year, so perhaps I should provide a New Year type post..”

Not often is there such a beautiful combination as this. Two of my favourite subjects combined into a single cool competition. Gaze with awe at the amazing pictures.

unleash the 2700HGV

Comments, Tutorial, by Paul Godden.

BT Business broadband are currently bundling the 2wire BT2700HGV with their lines, which is a wireless router with built in firewall, content management and Hardware VoIP system.

windows vista launch

Comments, The site, by Paul Godden.

Windows Vista has finally been launched. Unfortunately it’s only for the volume licensing business market. But at least it’s coming! I guess they’re going to iron out any kinks with their corporate customers first before releasing it into the home. Also Office 2007 has been released – again only to corporate customers.

300Gb Optical Disc

Comments, The site, by Paul Godden.
