New life in my old mac

For the past few months my macs felt like its on its last legs. This weekend i decided to replace the old knackered 100GB hard drive with a new 500GB one. I wasn’t expecting any changes in performance but the old disk must have slowing down the machine a little, as it now boots up a little quicker.

Either way its a really straight forward process and there a few tutorials on Youtube on how to do it, its not 100% necessary to watch them but if you are uncomfortable with this type of thing I would suggest taking a peak at them. The only thing worth noting is you will need both a Torx T6 screwdriver as well as a normal Phillips screwdriver

The insides were very compact and tidy, next time I build a pc from scratch i’ll try and use some flat ribbon sata cables.

Anyways, now i’ve got a spare 2.5 inch sata drive which I need to put in something. Maybe in an old Gameboy?

Open atrium

The current Intranet we use at work is a licensed based product  which has a bundle of features but we aren’t using it as much as planned and aren’t going to be renewing our licenses. Not to worry though, we are going to be using Open Atrium as a replacement. Its open-source, Drupal based and seems to do everything we need.

I haven’t been able to install it locally on my mac as I need to re-compile PHP to include GD but will hopefully have it up and running this week on our work servers.

Courier Tablet from Microsoft

Saw this on Gizmodo and Digg, kind of makes me want to throw out the moleskin.

I definitely would love to get my hands on one of these and also see an Apple version of this product.

Although i’ve not actively used Twine for a while, TechCrunch have written an article on the new version of Twine and how it might change our searching habbits.
