Bart’s Preinstalled Environment (BartPE) Version 3.1.10
February 17, 2006 on 5:11 pm | In General | No CommentsVersion 3.1.10 (released on Feb 13, 2006) - This looks like one of the better tools available for troubleshooting a windows installation that won’t boot. I’ve used InsertCD (Knoppix based I believe) and this works, but I’m eager to put this BartPE to use. That last version he produced was problematic for me so I hope this version shows some improvement.
How To Troubleshoot Any Networking Problem
February 15, 2006 on 10:02 am | In General | No CommentsTech author extraordinaire Mark Minasi shares a bit over two dozen “rules of network troubleshooting.” This will be new for some, a good review for others, and a handy reference for all.
Far more useful than an attitude review for IT people - this post actually contains some useful information! What a novel concept.
Technologist Manifesto…, or Things Everyone in IT Should Know
February 14, 2006 on 10:55 am | In General | No CommentsI found the following link to be an insightful perspective into the issues surrounding IT in corporate America. I have personally seen way too many folks in the industry get it in their head that because they’re in the IT department, they make the rules. In my workplace, we like to call our Help Desk the Helpless Desk because they tend towards the extreme of non-response to most issues we raise. When they do help, expect an argument as to the why’s and how things need to be fixed.
This might be a good one to “accidentally” send to all, preferably from someone else’s email account.

Web 2.0 Pixel Page
February 11, 2006 on 1:00 pm | In Pixel Ads, Ideas (Good & Bad) | No CommentsAs you may have noticed from my other posts, I have come to the conclusion that the concept of pixel ads is a throwaway. At least in its incarnation at milliondollarhomepage.com. The problem as I see it is that there is no real draw for the user to come to the site, other than to see the amazing mess of pixels that make up it’s home page. The most profitable web ventures make it because their real estate is useful for a large number of people. That said, it is hard to imagine the concept being much more than a 1 hit wonder, which is fine with me.
8 Reasons Why I’m Not a Millionaire
February 7, 2006 on 10:36 pm | In Self Improvement | 3 CommentsI stopped at 8 because I’m not inclined to keep going. Perhaps it’s because I’m tired of lambasting myself for not being a money whore. Wait, did I just say that?
The fact of the matter remains that while I apply myself to solving each of these problems it will inevitably lead to another list of reasons why I’m STILL not a millionaire. In reality, it seems the attainment of millionaire status is often the result of luck (and maybe a mind to sieze opportunity the moment it arrives).
