  • Xbox 360 An entirely un-scientific observation, but of the three people I know who own Xbox 360's - all three of said machines have gone wrong and had to be repaired by Microsoft, or exchanged by the retailer, once. Additionally, one of these three Xbox 360s has just died for a second time within a couple of months of having been repaired by Microsoft. 1
  • Wii Of the seven eight people I know who own a Wii, not one has had a problem. 1 2
  • The new look at Meckins' Grimoire perhaps implies I've been on some sort of web design course. (The title being "How to make your web site look like everyone elses.") I haven't, I cheated, and I commend Joomla to you.
  • A few new photos over on Flickr.
  • I linked to, and then withdrew a link to Digsby in my last post. I've continued to use it, but any new users should read this before installing. FB chat continues to work well in this client.


That's it, here's to Spring, and that Close to the Edge day!!

1 In each case, one of the consoles mentioned is mine.
2 Two of the Wiis date from 2007, two are less than six months old.

I was unsure of which day is CTTE day. I think it's a bit like Easter in that it moves about. Anyway, CTTE cropped up on my mp3 player the other day so the day has come & gone. Spring can be a bit like that.
