Introducing Fiounnula

Who’s Fiounnula you ask? She’s my new Pembroke Welsh Corgi, due to be delivered to me once she’s eight weeks old (which is sometime in mid-May.) I’m terribly excited, as I’ve longed for a Corgi since meeting several breeders at a conference some time ago.

On the other end was the General […]

Windows XP on My MacBook Pro

Alt reality. Windows XP running smoothly on my MacBook Pro. Amazing.
Today I decided to install Windows XP on my shiny new MacBook Pro. Thanks to Boot Camp, the process was incredibly easy.
First, I ran the Assistant, and made some room on my partition for Windows XP. Next, I created a driver disc. And finally, a […]
