      Indeed, growing up there was no one funnier.

    Fingers crossed that Schumi makes a full and speedy recovery.

    Just got a pair of TP-Link AV200 powerline plugs running ethernet through the mains: brilliant piece of kit.

    Got the job! 90 minute interview and apparently I was the outstanding candidate! :)

      I think he means he was out standing in his field.

      Exactly so. And then it started raining.

      You ride the short bus to work?

      If that's what gets me there on time, I'll ride it.

      Oh well... my wife lost her job today, so extra fingers crossed for tomorrow's interview...

    Just had a short phone interview for a telecom company... fingers crossed for a follow-up!

      Thanks guys! Oddly enough I thought he was a cold caller at first and hung up on him... fortunately he rang back. Ah - the irony! Anyway - fingers and toes are crossed.

      Score! Is this for the little Atari?

      It's a LBP3010 from 2-3 years ago. Seems hardly used (it's mint) and there's still toner in the "starter" cartridge (rated for 700 pages, and it doesn't appear to have done many yet). USB only, so this is for the PC - great for dumping listings and PDFs.

  9. flashjazzcat

    GUI demo out at last... now to get on with the cartridge build.

      Do 1-button Apple bus mice work too?

    3. jmetal88

      jmetal88

      I wouldn't be able to tell you without trying it out, and I don't have an Apple bus mouse to try it with.

    4. flashjazzcat

      flashjazzcat

      OK. If I can get hold of one for pennies I'll have a go. ;)

  10. flashjazzcat

    Three pints is definitely my limit now. The extra one just isn't worth the bother the next day...

  11. flashjazzcat

    Thanks to whoever is spamming the shit out of my POP boxes. You will get your rewards in a later life... or possibly in this one.

      I just had Spam for dinner last night, actually. Broiled with melted cheese on it.

    Must be nit-picking week this week...

    Why did I go window shopping at the Apple store? I can't even afford the 27" iMac's keyboard...

    1. Zach

      Zach

      Still it's a better place for window shopping than Windows shopping.

      Hehe... very sharp. :)

    Is there a better feeling in the world than correcting the grammar of someone who has been complaining about and offering examples of other people's poor grammar?

      LOL at jaybird3rd. I'm right there with you on that one. And flashjazzcat, this is why I prefer not to correct grammer or spelling since I know mine isn't always correct.

    Looks like a few of his girlfriends could have used a termination...

  20. flashjazzcat

    Sorry - was offline by then Stephen. Got a funeral to attend today... let's chat later. :)

  21. flashjazzcat

    I'm up for that Stephen!

  22. flashjazzcat

    Yes Carmel. The mouse I'm using at the moment with the GUI (the mouse driver being the first thing I did) is an Amiga model which I originally modified to work with the ST. One of the latest Amiga mice I've ordered has an ST/Amiga switch, while the other doesn't. As for the GUI driver: slight reordering of the bit reading will allow either mouse to work. ST or Amiga mouse will be a setup option. :

  23. flashjazzcat

    Nothing like a good argument to clear the air when that heap-manager gets you down!

  24. flashjazzcat

    Two flavours Carmel: disk based and RAM-cart based. Disk based will arrive first...

  25. flashjazzcat

    Tidying the cupboards... four STs? Even I was surprised...
