I really should keep this thing updated every once in a while

2005-11-25T00:21:00.000-05:00

Seems that every time I come back to my own blog, it's been weeks or months since the last update... guess the novelty cools off after a while. Or maybe it's because the blog doesn't really have a theme, except as a sort of big bookmark keeper so that I can refer friends over when they're looking for something in particular. Plus it's never going to generate any kind of revenue as nobody else looks at it :)
Oh, and what's with all the bogus comments left all over the place? I think I've had only two *real* people leave comments. The rest is just ads for some product or other with the phrase "Hi, I was looking for *product X* and I found your blog... bla bla bla..." - man, stop it already, nobody is dumb enough to click on these. But then again, maybe these guys *are* generating revenue... oh well, I just started this thing to see how to tie everything together - ads, counters, Blog This features in Firefox etc...

This is very useful if you find that you often have to re-install Windows XP on your computer and don't want to go through the tedious process of installing from the original CD, then installing SP2.
Slipstreaming will allow you to combine Sp2 with the original installation files to create an integrated installation CD.
