A few days in Melbourne.
Even though its work (neuromod course), its also nice to just step out and relax. Recharge the batteries in anticipation of next year being a busy one.
Posting from 10K up
Have to say its a new experience to be able to post from this altitude. Kudos to qantas for this one.
Even let me SSH in on a random port…
Next Server
Still not sure what would be the right upgrade path for the server.
Certainly the move to linux servers seems to be working well. Probably better than os x for server use.
Busy week
Brisbane and back.
Faculty meeting and talk.
Lots happening. But sometimes I think I like it that way.
🙂
Apple event
Wow – apple is finally moving back to something good with its hardware
The Mac mini got the update it needed.
The new air looks reasonably good, and better than the MacBook pros as they have a proper keyboard
And the ipad. That ipad. Looks really good.
This was a really big event – apple is going in the right direction again
TUAC / PA
Off to the next accreditation visit
Back at work
Haven’t quite lost that holiday feeling. But its strange how quickly it wears off.. Back at work.

When they did find their only gluten free offering, we got this:

Some aerial shots of the place we are in.
Last full day
Chris and Steve left already to Rome then return..
The rest of us leaving tomorrow morning, some to journey home, and some to continue on for a bit longer around parts of Italy.
