Credit Card Scam: Lenovo

BootBlock | 29 January, 2010

Credit CardsAbout fifteen days ago I placed an order at Lenovo.com (UK store) for nice little IdeaPad S10-3T netbook. Or, at least I thought I did. The ordering process failed multiple times, but hey – I want that netbook! On about the 5th go or so, success! They accepted the order and I waited.

Released: Profile Relocator v0.99, Wake On LAN Ex v2.07

BootBlock | 21 January, 2010

Profile RelocatorWe have new releases! Rejoice, and such.

The first one is Profile Relocator. This allows all newly-created Windows profiles to be created in a user-specified location. This is great if you’re not a nutter and want all of your profile data (including application data, desktop, favourites, etc) in a safe place in case you want to re-install Windows (not really required any more since Vista) or it somehow gets wanked and jizzes over everything.

The second is Wake On LAN Ex 2. Added some feature requests and squashed an exception on start-up.

Finally, the original Wake On LAN Ex was seemingly not providing the latest v0.96 release, but instead v0.95. No idea what the hell happened there, but it’s sorted now. You should be using WoLEX2 anyway.

But you’d know all this if you were following my lame Twitter crap.

Thank you, and good night.

audioFlow

BootBlock | 16 January, 2010

audioFlowBit quiet around here, innit?

It may be here, but it isn’t so quiet on Twitter. I’ve been posting there about my latest projects, such as Glassix (the 4th rewrite) and audioFlow (a rewrite of Hydrogen), along with work-in-progress screenshots. Along with occasional rants, because that’s what I do.

A quick summary of the current in-development application:

audioFlow is a suite requiring no third-party software that turns a PC into a web-enabled jukebox and streaming media centre. This is a rewrite of Hydrogen which I started almost a decade ago. For live updates on its progress, see Twitter here.

Oh, and you may get glimpses of my Lenovo IdeaPad S10-3t antics. Which I haven’t bought yet. But will do. Why the hell are the buying options for it so limited on the UK Lenovo store? Grr.
