There's been a problem plaguing our SalesLogix install since 6.2x. Our sync service would randomly hang on our Windows 2003 Server box. Eventually it became more well known as more people began upgrading to Win2003 I believe and this confirmed it.

I received the shipment of Guitar Hero 2 yesterday roughly at Noon. I didn't disconnect the controller until 9:00PM (give or take 30 minutes). I took maybe a 1-2 hour break if you combined the couple of minutes in between songs. In total I'd say I spent a good 6-7 hours playing and I'm greatly feeling the effects of it. Here's a basic injury rundown: ......

It's been over a year since I last posted and I return with a whiney post regarding work issues. The main reason I stopped blogging regularly was I typically talk to the majority of my readers on a regular basis, and I felt like just about every other post I was complaining about something. Complaints are fine but when you're reminded of nothing but ......

I'll sum up this post in the shortest amount of words possible: the DST 2007 update from Microsoft breaks Intellisync for SalesLogix.

Usually I'm not an early adopter of any platform. I have limited funds and choose to alocate them wisely. Once a year I go against this principle for Christmas/my birthday and splurge on myself. This year I had it all picked out, Xbox 360, but there was no way in hell I would wait in line. I reserved $500 and some change for the purchase, knowing tax ......

These are the games I've played so far to date in order of freshness: Fight Night Round 3 Single Player Quite possibly the game that makes the purchase "worth it" The graphics are amazing as hell and while unrealistic (linear blood spurts) screams "potential" for upcoming titles Tekken 5 was the first game that made me say "Holy ... I'm playing a cutscene" ......

My buddy Bill recently has been requesting ideas for his upcoming Speech Server book. He discussed tone of the material and I thought I'd elaborate a little on the difference between a conversational and a technical reference tone. I remember certain things about my CS (Computer Science) 101 class not because of Pascal (the greatest language EVAR (only ......

The title and post is a somewhat inside joke between my friends and I. When we make accomplishments together like beat a level in a single player game, one of us typically says something like “I did that. I unlocked that car all by myself. See that? I just beat the game...” or something completely arrogant yet partially true. Yes we may ......

I've been super busy lately, namely out of the routine of blogging which is both good and bad. Our SalesLogix upgrade to 6.2 has kept me pretty busy. I started blogging to keep my ideas in one place but I find that I often do not go back unless there's something I need. Posting solidifies my ideas in my head and in most cases will commit those things ......

I have a Dell Dimension 4550 desktop that died Friday. The computer shutdown fine but when I proceeded to move it from one office to another, it would no longer power on. I spent more hours than I should have trying to diagnose and narrow down the problem and I think I have a good idea where it is. Stage 1: Power Supply To test this as the possible ......
