Updates

So I have a bad cold, which is even causing me to skip part of the working day. Thankfully, it isn't too busy at the lab anyway, though the pre-Christmas rush will kick in soon. Apart from that, not too much is going on.
I also haven't been surfing the net too much - though my rare visit to the MS site did make me find an extra theme for WinXP. Yes, MS released something different than the WinXP standard in 3 colours. The theme is released to promote the new Zune media player, and hence is available from zune.net (or straight away via this link). Its black, looks like the royal inspirat mod that is available for patched theme.dll's and has orange highlights. Probably, it has some Vista-ish looks as well.

Update:
News just in: Apparently, the ground floor of my building has been sold. Well, as soon as I and the other inhabitant sign the forms that grant our approval to the deal.
That and:

Long delayed post

After hell breaking loose, hell breaking loose again and both of my previous operating systems deciding to burn in the fires of hell at the same time, things are getting back on track. Though I lost half the links and the other half is outdated, here goes:

Elections: De zweefwijzer. Sound enabled.
Elections: Another zweefwijzer. Slightly buggy.
Random: 'Vereniging ter behoud van het Nietszeggende Spreekwoord'
Scary Shit: BioTech tinkering at home, with the first site listing resources right here. The projects are a bit weird... As far as I know, you still need a license to do most of the stuff listed here...
Linux: Quick video of Beryl available from google. I think the MS Vista visual experience just became outdated.
