Så er sitet langsomt ved at vågne, og selvom der stadigt mangler at blive tilpasset design, templates og alt muligt andet, så skulle udsigten til at dette sker, nu være så kort, at der nu er åbnet for trafik for alvor igen :-)

Velkommen tilbage, hvis du har været her før. Det er snart 2 uger siden, men derfor kan man jo godt - på den kedelige måde - lære at tage backup jævnligt fremover. Efter et RAID5 (en måde at spejlede data over flere harddiske) brændte sammen en nat, forsvandt dette site sammen med et par andre ud i ingenting.

While EasyJet seem to be an appropriate name for the airline in my experiences, their sibling EasyCar is a quite different matter. Two months ago my parents booked and paid for a rental car in Portugal. When they arrived however – the staff at National/Alamo, which is the EasyCar agent in Portugal – told them, that EasyCar hadn’t paid them.

To sort matters out and get them the car at the rate they paid to EasyCar, I’ve been trying to get in touch with EasyCar by web and by phone. Unfortunately they seem to do a pretty good job of hiding and ignoring me so far. Their phone numbers can only be dialled from with the UK and while they did se the question I left at their website – the only response was “we’ll examine it” – and nothing further.

De seneste dage har der været et par store annoncer i gratis aviserne, som fortæller hvordan man kan blive rig - hurtigt og næsten uden at røre en finger (det har selv Computerworld set dem). Arbejdet for manden, der står bag, må have været til at overskue - i hvert fald sammenligner man hans side med en anden.

Today there was a small change in the local network at home. A laser printer was removed and the other laser printer changed to a network printer. It a small change in a little network, but a great convenience in the long run. I guess my home network is pretty standard and much like the average home network. There are only two machines attached (a laptop and a desktop), which share a DSL connection to the internet.

During our vacation at Sicily we had a rental car the first week which was part of the package bought from home. Since our most recent experience was, that you should get plenty of engine power, we went with a fair sized car (and engine) – or so we thought anyway. The nice sales guy at home had promised us a “B category” car which would be a common 5-door Fiat Punto with a 1.2 size engine (or likewise). Not impressive, but it should be sufficient to drive around.
