I got to admit that I have been a fan of doing backups for a long time, sure it was not always like this but I learned it the hard way, so ever since the late DOS days I have been doing backups on a regular basis. I did fail some years ago with the […]
Second graphics card for Apple Mac Pro with Boot Camp
In a previous post I mentioned some wishes for the final version of Boot Camp for Apple Mac Pro. One of them was better support for multiple graphics cards. Since I had an old unused 15″ TFT I decided to ask directly at the Apple Boot Camp forums about support for ATI X 1900 XT […]
Time to include an Amusement Park visit for next holiday
I was not expecting that I today would be sitting and thinking about the next holiday for me and the kids but I just did that right now. We have been to a few amusement parks in Germany and Denmark before and the kids love it. So when I saw the Amusement Parks in Blackpool, […]
XBox 360 repair time
The Red Ring of Death I finally got around calling Microsoft’s XBox 360 the other day. It went very smooth to explain the problem with ‘The Red Ring of Death’, guess it was not first time for them :-) Just had to mention the problems with the light and the girl at support took over, […]

Is Boot Camp for Mac OS X final now?
Apple announced official today that the next version of OS X 10.5 (Leopard) will be released on the 26th of October. I consider this great news, just too bad that I mainly use my Mac Pro for Windows XP. I’m using Boot Camp for this of course, which allows OS X users to install various […]
Time for Flash Element TD2
Just saw on the blog of Paul & Dave (Creator of Flash Element TD and more) that they are doing a re-vamp (remake) of Flash Element TD. This is not the first game they have done after Flash Element TD, as they did Desktop TD, Flash Circle TD and Vector TD also. I played Circle […]
I dream… about Pikmin for Nintendo Wii
I just saw this great picture on Nintendo Wii Fanboy and now I know what I really really miss for my Nintendo Wii: Pikmin 3 or Pikmin Wii or whatever they will call it, IF they make it. Right now I don’t remember seeing anything from Nintendo that confirms they are doing it.. So I […]
