Well actually it has been bloody ages since I posted on this site. I am not at all sure what has happened and why I lost interest in posting on lummie.co.uk but I can only put it down to the excitement of the recent project at work. It is amazing how much time this project is taking up in my life and how little time I have for computing (except first Tuesday in the month).

So here lays a new resolution to spend a little more time in putting down my thoughts and knowledge on lummie.co.uk again.

Just got one of the Micro Attache Flash drives. I wanted something that was durable, fast and compact that I can put on my keyring. And after testing I’m very impressed. I get a sustained ~8.5MB/s write speed (advertised at 10MB/s) and read is 20MB/s (25MB/s advertised)

I’ve been using a little acer netbook for the past year and love the convenience of its size (9″ screen). My main laptop (acer 8204wmli) which I use for gaming is getting a bit long in the tooth, (ati x1600 graphics) so I have decided to upgrade to a new small form factor gamin laptop.

So hopefully coming in the post soon, a i7 4Gb Ram Nvidia 330m laptop

The first challenge is to get Ubuntu installed as the dell recovery partition supposedly causes problems.
