Journal, Opinion and Rants!
I was just about to install Windows 7 RTM on the MacBook Pro Core Duo. Unfortunately Boot Camp Assistant is unable to relocate files on the hard drive to create a 32 GB partition.
Well, I’m going to wait for this weekend to see if Snow Leopard would actually be released. It’s an excuse for backing-up and initializing the hard drive.
Until then I’d put this project on hold and installing Windows 7 on an older Gateway PC instead.
I’m downgrading a computer to Windows XP SP2 because a certain Microsoft program doesn’t work properly after Service Pack 3 was installed.
Well, it is not the program itself. For some reasons certain VB-scripts no longer runs properly after Internet Explorer 7 is installed. Internet Explorer 7 is somehow included in Service Pack 3.
For now this computer will stay at Service Pack 2.
On Monday May 4th, 2009 I had a remote recording session with Carlos Alazraqui and Cedric Yarbrough. Some might ask why I put Carlos before Cedric. The answer is pretty simple. Alphabetically Carlos Alazraqui comes before Cedric Yarbrough; be it by the first name or the last name.
We recorded a simple video using a Polycarbonate MacBook built-in iSight straight into iMovie ’09. Carlos and Cedric recorded their parts while I was 40-something miles away. Yes, we were using iChat to set-up, edit and encode the video.
After the video was done I uploaded it to a server so it can be downloaded by someone in the East Coast.
That was a great use of technology.
I think I have enough for tonight. I’ve been color correcting the video clips for a while now. I can’t really make the colors of the videos from three different cameras to be exactly the same. They are close enough.
I’m going to email Carlos some test footage for him to review.
Note to self:
Try out Google Sync for iPhone. It’s available for Mac and Windows.
I picked up the Mac Box Set at FedEx earlier today.
I’m installing iLife ’09 as I’m typing this.
The Mac Box Set comes with Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.6, just as I expected.
I was cleaning up a virus-infested Windows XP and found out how one of the viruses attempted infecting my USB drive.
Just watch out for some Registry entry for “resycled/boot.com”
Don’t forget to clean the computer up in safe mode, kill the explorer.exe and lunch Registry Editor.
I set up a WordPress blog for a Yahoo! hosted site a month or two ago. Today I found out the blog somehow inactive. No indications of any hacks or misconfigurations.
Maybe it is something that happens to Yahoo! servers.
I just upgrades all my WordPress blogs to version 2.6.5 today. During the updates, I finally fixed the annoying missing visual editor. (link to the fix here)
In addition to that, I can now log-in from the WordPress iPhone App.
Stuffit 2009 is out.
Windows Task Manager is disabled.
Mozilla Firefox Failed Chrome Registrations (in Windows Vista).
