You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

Trust my rage

I used Quickbooks for several months when we were doing the coffee business. It had a steep learning curve but I learned a lot about accounting. They have basic books that can help with figuring out the initial and basic skills/setup requirements.

Okay, Tivo did this thing where instead of recording channel 162 it recorded channel 10. (That is how it didn't record Dresden Files last night.)

Why does it do this and is there a fix for it?

Are you using one of those IR things to change the channel on the cable box?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

At one point my tivo missed all channels with a 6 in them - I had to slow down the speed in which the channels changed.

Yeah, I ran into the weirdo '6' problem at one point. If you check TivoCommunity.com, you'll find a FAQ with frequent problems, and channel changing is one of the biggies. All you have to do is go into the menus and try different IR blaster settings.

Okay - I will try that.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

In my house, it's also sometimes the cat's fault, or mine really, for leaving the remote on HIS couch.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Here's a question. Since the iPhone SDK needs an Intel Mac, I'm toying with the idea of buying a Macbook Air. Has anybody got one? As they any good?

All is well that ends in pizza.

Well, they've only been shipping over a month, hard to tell if there are any major flaws.

Other than needing a separate optical drive, or borrowing one from a nearby computer over the network, it looks like a fun machine.

Thanks for the GnuCash rec, DX. I was just looking for something like that.
