VMWare
by Stephen on Mar.06, 2007, under Tech Tips
Been using VMWare a bit at work to test out a few Linux configurations, that would normally involve me reinstalling a machine and being unavailable until I’m back in windows.
Being able to create virtual servers to test things is just so useful, I don’t know how I got by without it.
A minor change to my web address
by Stephen on Mar.05, 2007, under Site News
when you visit my site using http://www.shuttworld.co.uk or http://www.shutt-world.co.uk, you will now be redirected to http://shuttworld.co.uk.
Why have I done this? well all the links are set up to work from http://shuttworld.co.uk if you use the www’s it looks like you’re not logged in when you really are.
So now it doesn’t matter how you get here the adress your browser shows will be the one I want it to.
Cars fixed
by Stephen on Mar.05, 2007, under News
Well the garage managed to fix my car. They decided to replace the battery as they claimed that it was flat and broken, even though the AA guy had managed to start my engine with it before they got hold of my car.
After they’d replaced the battery it still wasn’t working, no suprise there as it wasnt the battery’s fault. Turns out it was a corroded fuse, how does a fuse corrode? Surely they’re nicely enclosed so don’t get exposed to water etc.
But anyway the cars working again, and I can no go as far as Asda for some petrol because the tanks empty 🙂
Back From Holiday

Got back from my holiday on sunday, a full week without playing WoW or using a computer. Most of every day was spent snowboarding, then the nights being tired out, so all in all a good holiday 🙂
