• Linksys SRX400 - So far, so good

  Last Friday, I took my M200 over to the lounge to watch the Sci-Fi Channel while I did some work. It turned out to be a most unpleasant experience.

• Toshiba M200 now at 60GB

  Not exactly a banner day for the Internet, but not a bad day over here at rkuo.com. The 60GB Hitachi Travelstar now in my Tablet PC is, in fact, close to as quiet as the old 40GB Travelstar and way more quiet than the Toshiba 80GB drive that I briefly Read More...

• Noisy notebook drives

  Since I'm not using the Inspiron 9100 much any more and eventually plan on selling it, I decided to swap one of the hard drives from the Inspiron into the Toshiba M200.

• On to Community Server Beta 3

  After having just installed Community Server 2.0 beta 2 , beta 3 comes out. Since I was blocking on some bugs in beta 2, I was definitely going to be annoyed if I had had to wait much longer to continue setting up my site. So I'm quite pleased by this Read More...

• Community Server beta 2 woes

  So here I am, trying to set up my new personal website at www.rkuo.com. (Can you believe that domain wasn't taken? Neither can I.)
