Happy New Year!
Anyway, the blog. Right well obviously not much has happened over the last few days when it comes to the Java project . Tempted to leave it until I start Universtiy again which is in another 12 days... annoyingly!
Also, i have an exam in just less than a week, so a lot of my spare time will be spent doing revision.
On a different note I've just started playing The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. I will evntually write a review and put it up here, but for the time being I'll leave you with this: Its great! Classic Zelda, which isn't a bad thing!
Being back at univsersity is rather nice (not started lectures yet, but I'm back in my accomidation) as I have another computer here, along with a few other things. Also, the freedom is rather good!
Speaking of my other computer, not my netbook or my laptop, I have mildly missed it while I've been away at home. Currently I'm running Linux Mint on it; it's good fun! Some really nice features along with speeding up this seriously old hardware. The hardware in question? Well, 1.5 GB of RAM, and a 2.1 GHz single core AMD Athlon XP 2800+. Yes its old, but is realtivly capable with simple internet browsing and even abit of Java coding! Hopefully in the end it will be come the central hub computer to my Java Network Program.
My big laptop on the other hand will continue being my main choice for computing needs. I recently installed an extra 2GB of RAM on it making it a ground breaking 4GB! Yeah... you at the back stop chuckling! Ah well, it will be enough.
Annoyingly though i need to change the operating system. For those of you who don't know, a 32 bit operating system (which is what I currently run) can only recognise a maximum of 3 GB of RAM. So effectivly my laptop isnt running at the full 4GB, but instead 3GB. Rubbish! So of course that requires a very loverly reinstall... good times!
Anyway, I've rambled on for far to long about very little. All of the above will probably lead onto another blog entry (I've been meaning to do one about Linux for AGES!) so maybe its not not completely useless!
Until next time.
