Crash Machine

Bit of a quiet day today. In my last blog I didn't really explain the title, what I did mean to mention was the fact that there was no phone sinal at Gregynog for pretty much any network, so once I returned I reported this to Orange (OK, I was a bit bored and avoiding work), as it is quite a busy conference centre, and the lack of coverage is probably losing them custom.... In my case, my phone was reduced to a rather expensive alarm clock :| Anyway, this morning at 09:05 I received a call from a very helpful customer services woman who suggested that the area around gregynog has been looked at, and there should be service provision within 12 months, to be honest I was impressed. You can't say fairer than 12 months either, as the local militant treehuggers will probably complain about it being an act of terror on the landscape or something.

Earlier this evening I got a phone call from andy saying that a cash machine had crashed, so I went to go and have a look, when I first herd, I presumed it was one of the graphical ones, but to my surprise, the standard text-based natwest ones also seem to run Windows NT (!) Is this why Microsoft have so much money? we will never know.

Anyway, group project meeting in the morning, got to read some documentation. Nite.
