That has got to be a record!

Saturday, December 17th, 2005

I had to get my license renewed … it was expiring on the 21st of this month. So I go to the MVA. Now there is nothing but sob stories about the MVA, but I must give them their duly deserved props this time.

I wanted to time myself just to see how long it took. I walked in at 3:58pm. No line at the Cust. Service desk. I was helped within 30 seconds of me approaching. I got a ticket and voila, there was already a window with my number in it. I go there, I am greeted with chocolates. I take my picture, but had to retake it due to the fear of having chocolate in my DL photo for the next 5 years. It was gladly retaken. I was out by 4:08.

10 minutes … I just can’t tell you how it could get ANY better!

Microsoft SyncToy

Friday, December 16th, 2005

Most of us today use more than one computer: Mainly a laptop and a desktop. There are files on both computers and we just try to remember which file is where. Sometimes the solution is to have a central drive on the home network. But what if you’re travelling? There are times when you want to keep copies of certain files on more than one location. But remembering what to copy can be an arduous task. Microsoft’s SyncToy is a free download that manages this for you. It is relatively simple to use and gets the job done. I think it is still a Beta release. Check it out: SyncToy

PS: For those of you without a legal copy of Windows, there ARE ways to get around the genuine windows testing before the download.
