Evening Reading

by Steve Gibson Mar 31, 2008 9:31pm CST
Alright, well hopefully you guys will excuse the mess we had today as one would hope that is the final time. You web developers out there probably wouldnt believe how old some of the libraries we had running around here were. We've pretty much upgraded everything now though and as a result things are already generally faster. The hope is to increase that about 6X by the end of the week. Let us pray! As for the evening nonsense:

As for the the videogame news around these parts for today:

Lastly, I have given up on FireFox. I tried total purges of all install files and registry entries to total reinstall the thing but no matter what I do and what about:config variables I fuss with the thing is just assy slow and dies on DNS in many cases. I suppose it is probably a good thing to have at least one person on our team using Internet Explorer though. I will miss you FireFox. I'll see you again when version 3 is final!
