finally! Just one more day before the holidays :3 I'm really happy to get a few weeks off and the chance to relax and fiddle with my new eMate.
I can highly recommend the following two websites to any newcommers to the Newton platform: UNNA and Newton Talk.

Well. I have to admit that it feels kind of strange to finally be able to write blog update and work on my articles while on the way. It also feels strange to finally have my wish for a nice portable serial terminal fulfilled. And the weirdest of all has to be the feeling of finally owning that most wondrous of Apple PDAs: the eMate300.
I'm not quite sure in which section of my website I'm going to file all of the eMate stuff since it covers two of the categories I write about:
1. Apple is of course the manufacturer of this pretty little device and I also make use of Mac OS X (and Classic) for managing and syncing the device. Hence it be logical to include it in the Apple section.
2. Of course the Newton is a product range by its own right, which would warrant a section of its own.
3. I will be using the eMate for System Administration at least 40% of the time. Which makes it ogical to include it in that section of the website.
I guess I'll modify the Apple section in such a way that its focus moves from the "Windows to Mac OSX switch" to "Apple in general" and then split off any Sysadmin specific parts (like a tutorial on linking the eMate with our Sun Microsystems servers).
Right. Now that that's out of the way. Other updates! ^_^
My work for the Anime Con has been a bit slow the last two weeks, due to some family troubles. I won't go too deep into it, but let's say that Christmas 2004 almost went down the crapper. Unfortunately I foresee that I won't be able to get any work for the Con done until halway January. This is of course partially due to the holiday season.
Also, those sysadmins out there keeping an eye on my NIS+ antics may have noticd the severe lack of any updates in the matter. The truth is that we were forced to move back theNIS+ Maser Switch until halfway January (a pattern is forming!), so it'll be a while.
Finally, Marlijne is doing well at school. She's still enjoying herself, so that's all good. She also decide to make the switch to another major within the same faculty. Instead of "Management, Economy and Legal" she will start in "Business economics and IT" in the next semester.
