Stuff…

Having a @!?% of a lot of spam currently, so finally got round to getting this Askimet or Akismet or whatever the hell its called spam thingy installed and working, and believe me, this API thing you need is not the most obvious thing to find, you need to open a wordpress.com account just to get one. The directions don’t even make this very clear!

Also sorted out some nice new email… mo (at) mohoyt (dot) com

Finally reading a bit more about the old Boot Camp release, and I realise that as usual, Apple is nicely taking the piss out of Microsoft as they go about explaining the features… try these on:-

EFI and BIOS
Macs use an ultra-modern industry standard technology called EFI to handle booting. Sadly, Windows XP, and even the upcoming Vista, are stuck in the 1980s with old-fashioned BIOS. But with Boot Camp, the Mac can operate smoothly in both centuries.

Word to the Wise
Windows running on a Mac is like Windows running on a PC. That means it’ll be subject to the same attacks that plague the Windows world. So be sure to keep it updated with the latest Microsoft Windows security fixes.

Microsoft security fixes… damn they’ll make a difference, not!
