Dapper Drake is up and running

The transformation is complete. Wireless check, mouse kinda check, video card check and quicken check. I found crossover office to be a nice tool and I might even keep it and pay for it so I can keep Dapper Drake and still have linux too. On another note, Charlee Bear treats are like crack for dogs. It's amazing, they look like oyester crackers and dogs go crazy for them. If you've got a dog and a Trader Joe's in the neighborhood go check them out. Also, for those very interested readers I will be dining at La Vineria next weekend, with the owner. Amanda made friends with her, Giovanna, on the bus ride and now we have a double date. Should be very interesting since she is a 40 year old woman from Italy and in the 2 seconds I met her seems very friendly. Ok, time to make the donuts, or here that means feed the dog.

1 down, millions to go

Why did I change back to Windows before? Oh yeah, Linux is a pain. So I finally got my wireless working again, new router + realizing I needed to turn off the NIC before it would work. Oh well, now it's time to try and get Quicken working in Wine. Something tells me that might be a losing battle but it's worth a shot.

Hello World! Goodbye Windows.

So it's been a long time and my crappy internet has driven me to the brink. I figured it was probably not a Windows problem but I would blame it on that anyway. So I backed up and decided I'm going back to Ubuntu. Either way I have to get a new router so I might as well start getting back to being nerdy and having a more stable computer. That is all.
