It has been a while since I have written about my recent hardware upgrade. I have it pretty well setup like I like now. The purchase has been a great success. I could not have touched what I bought for less than $2,000 and I got it for less than half that including upgrading to [...]

I am actually happy that I resolved the Microsoft Vista problems and re-installed it. I have applied all maintenance through SP2 and it is running very well. I must say that I like it better than I [...]

Not that it matters to anyone but me, but today I upgraded Chiriquí Chatter to the latest version of Wordpress which is 2.8

I took a diversion [...]

When I get bored, I do things I might not do otherwise. Like I said in a previous post, my daughter’s enthusiasm about her new PC made me want to make my PC look a little more up to date. I really hadn’t intended to upgrade to KDE 4.x until openSUSE 11.2 came out, I [...]

If you are wondering why the lull in posts, there are several reasons. However, the most notable is my because my daughter got a new PC and she was bragging on it’s speed and all the glitz.

It appears that Chiriquí Chatter is up, following the blog upgrade to WordPress 2.7 I have one issue that I need to follow up on, but I don’t think it should cause a problem to readers. If you see any strange changes in Chiriquí Chatter, please drop me a note.
