Note: This won’t be a proper review in any sense, just a gathering of opinions and facts in no particular order. About two years back, I found a Gameboy Color at a flea market for 7 €. Since then I’ve been stricken by a sort of portable gaming ‘thing’. After that, I bought a DSi, […]
Read MoreVeeam 8 has been out now for a while, and has received it’s first patch, too. I’ve been running some tests using the new/improved Cloud Connect functionality, which allows you to send backups or backup copies to a repository located at a service provider. To reduce network traffic between sites, I’m using WAN Accelerators at […]
Read MoreI did a physical to virtual conversion of some Exchange 2007 servers, running on Server 2008 last weekend. While everything went fine in general, there were a few lessons to be learned. There’s a lot of forum threads and blog posts written about this topic, but I figured I’d put up some of my experiences […]
Read MoreA very long time has passed since I last posted anything. In that time, I’ve done an ass ton (metric, in imperial that’d be approximately 45/64th’s of one quarter cup liquid ounce of.. inches?) of work, been to Switzerland and back, had my son start elementary school, and various other bits and bobs.

Read MoreThis year I flew to Las Vegas for EMC World 2014. Same as last year. The trip was less gruesome, as we had only one layover in Heathrow, both ways. The trip still takes nearly a day, including time spent waiting at airports, sitting in cabs etc. Not something I’d like to do multiple times […]
Read MoreI’ve now had the Lenovo Thinkpad T440s as a work machine for the past 6 or 7 months. Here are some short observations, things I like, things I don’t like, things the broke, etc. Things I do not like: The gorram touchpad. Get it out of here! Horrible the way there is like a single […]
Read MoreI’ve been the owner of an ebook reader (see the previous post) for all of two weeks now. I have used my kindle nearly daily, and it’s a handy thing to have around. So far, I’ve mostly been reading issues of Linux Journal (who moved to a digital format two years (?) back), the scifi […]
Read MoreSo I’ll start out by saying that there wasn’t a real.. flaming need to get an ebook reader. I just wanted one. And I am at a point in my life where I can get things that I want. It’s also painfully difficult to get ebook readers in Finland. They have this mantra here. “There’s […]
Read MoreSo between February and now, the period of time which will be known as the big lazy, is now over. *golf clap* A lot has happened. I went to Las Vegas for EMC World 2014. Came back. Have loads of new gadgets and things to talk about. I’ll list a few just to get started: […]
Read MoreMoving has forced me to look at home appliances from various angles. Literally. All of the major appliances at our apartment are energy rated A, since I’ve always found it the right choice, plus they save a bit of power too. What is it that makes people buy less-ecological appliances? Price. No other, real reason […]
