Sleep Deprived Geek in Blunderland
I've just been checking the stats on the Airport Extreme card that I added when I ordered my mini mac. The range of the card is 150ft! 150!!. That means that damn near everyone in my apartment block will be able to pick up my connection! HOLY SHIT!
I tryed to make a trifle last night… It seems that the cooking gods are not looking kindly on me at the moment because I managed to well and truely mess it up. As you do, I started off with the Jelly (jello for the yanks)… all went well with that bit. Then came the [...]

Unfortunatly my resolution's maxed out so all it does is make everything a bit bigger on my screen… still, it's nice not to have to squint to see things ;o) Secondly the stuff I ordered [...]
