New MacBooks

The best deals are still with the airs (which are a pretty powerful machine), as the retina display macbook pro is to die for, but not nearly as portable.

I’m still stuck wondering which way to go, as a 15 inch laptop has one major problem – it won’t fit into a hotel safe that easily.  I’m sort of wondering if I really just want a 13 inch retina macbook pro, which doesn’t really exist yet.

Oh well, I might just get a 512 GB SSD hard drive and put it into my current macbook pro, and live with that for a while.  Its not like my current laptop is doing me badly at the moment, I just have an irrational desire to upgrade.

 

New Server

Ok,

A complete rebuild of the server.  Running on Lion now, which isn’t trivial.  No support for MySql, so it has to been installed manually.

And poor virtual host support – have bought VirtualHostX, which does the job well.

Now I just need to rebuild the whole thing, although the blog entries are here, which is a start.
