It sure feels nostalgic to see Tom’s Hardware list every single known computer processor released from 1995 to 2005 on this article and this one. Resurfaces memories of the very first PC I’d ever built way back at the end of 1995 – an Intel Pentium 100MHz based machine. And now, almost 10 years later (even if I’ve had it for almost 2 years now), my PC has an (effectively) 2500MHz processor! That’s like 25 times faster, and my PC…
While reading this “review” of SUSE Linux 9.3 (actually looks like more of an ad, which probably shouldn’t surprise since it is hosted on Novell’s website), I came across this screenshot that did give me pause (that’s Shakespearean for you!) Having used OpenOffice 1.x (and its predecessors, since the then-free StarOffice version 5.x), I must say that it actually (and finally!) looks visually appealing! According to the website, version 2.0 is still in its final stages of beta testing, but…
It’s been some 3 months now since I moved from my Blogger blog to this WordPress one.. gosh, time sure passes really quickly! Before I know it, it’ll already be the Novemember holidays again! Haha.. Anyhow, one of things I never got around to doing was to document why exactly I went to WordPress, and (probably) more importantly how exactly I went about doing it. And I never could seem to get around to doing it. 🙁 Luckily, this blogger…
Because fellow Mac using teachers at the MUGS forums have requested for it, I thought I’d put up this simple guide on getting your OS X Mac working with your school network. Yes, internet access is automatic via an access point in the staff room (well at least in mine anyhow), so I shan’t cover that, but using the networked printers and folders requires a little sleuthing and configuration. So here goes! Go into Applications –>Utilities–>Directory Access. Highlight SMB and…
Unsuprisingly, it looks like I’m far from the first person to look into implementing a multiple-user blog for school use, and there sure seems to be a lot of interest in it. I do wish that I’d found this article on Google or something before I did my own research, but I doubt it’d have affected my decision to roll out pLog for some of my students or the (hopefully) imminent weblogs for teachers (just waiting for release 1.0 to…
No, I’m not talking about Sarong Party Girls 😀 but Simple PHP Gallery. A little too simple perhaps, since it’s a script that doesn’t really do anything other than display a gallery of pictures uploaded into directories on the server. Also, since it doesn’t have any way to upload pictures, you’ll have to upload them on your own via FTP – which might be a little limiting for some people. Anyway, anyone looking to integrate a light gallery into a…
