Of course, we burned through probably three times the zip ties of any other team in order to make that happen....zip ties are cheap, awesome cable runs are priceless. Seems like a good deal to me. Especially where safety is involved.

I'll be buying extra zip ties this year.

We caught a bit of flak for going through so many zip ties. Of course, part of the problem was that we lost a bag for a few days, which caused Drew to have to make an emergency zip tie run that turned out to be unnecessary....

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
Rockbox; it turned my new Sansa e260 mp3 player from a pretty good value unit, into a goddamn-fricken-fracken-fantastic value unit. The only reason I've avoided buying anything like that is not the money but the lack of support for FLAC and other decent lossless formats but it turns out the only impediment was software and Rockbox fixes that. I can now play FLAC, APE, SHN, or a host of other lossless formats. I can now also play some simple games on the thing. :)
Works on certain types of iPods, as well as a host of other brand portable music players.

Using duct tape to stick telephone lines out of the way shouldn't cause any problems, right?

Well, to your paint, maybe. It shouldn't cause a problem with your line. Tack-in cable stays would be better, and pretty cheap.

Do we know anything about Windows XP Service Pack 3? I'm suspicious of just letting it loose on my computer.

I've heard people have problems with it sometimes. But I don't know very much.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I need some webhosting assistance. Webhosting for dummies as it were. So please be nice to me if I ask really stupid questions.
I have dreamhost hosting right now, which is just dandy, but all my email is handled through google through google apps.
I don't really use my dreamhost or my website very much. I'd like some file storage, but that's about all I need (1 GB or less at this point). In fact, I only want to be able to use email through google apps and register my domain. That's about all I need to do.
question 1: do I still need to pay for webhosting? I had to have a file reside on the acct to forward email to google apps, but since that's already done, do I still to maintain a website?
question 2: any recommendations for cheap webhosting? dreamhost is a bit too expensive for what I need.
