Sounds like a real mixed bag of goodies doesn’t it?

This week I have mostly been investigating SNMP. As of right now I have a general understanding and high level overview, unfortunately my time seems a little short at the moment what with having to write up a department definition (I’m the IT department so let’s call this a role definition shall we) for my long overdue “review”.

I’ve recently got back into Battlefield 1942, it has really come on leaps and bounds with each patch and is now smooth to play, even at 1024×768 on my Geforce 4 Ti4200.

I really enjoyed playing a modern warfare mod that was developed for BF1942, the name escapes me but that’s not the point, it was a modern warfare type of mod with Apache’s, A-10 Tankbusters etc. I became a bit of a dab hand with the Apache’s so with the recent release of Battlefield 2 which is a modern warfare sequel to BF1942 I stumped up the cash and bought the game figuring that my Ti4200 might struggle but would still work. It worked for everything else; Far Cry to Doom 3, Call Of Duty and Medal Of Honour: Pacific Assault so why shouldn’t it work on Battlefield 2 I ask myself? No need to actually CHECK the requirements I think… nooo. (more…)

I’ve just returned early from the worst holiday of my life.

Both myself and my girlfriend contracted salmonella while on holiday in an All-inclusive resort in Mexico. The hotel didn’t care, the rep was useless and we’ve been offered no compensation at all. It has cost me over £700 to get us home early and away from possible re-infection. I’ve slept for 14 hours after travelling for 24 hours.

I’m tired, angry and out for revenge. Once I’ve attempted to resolve the problem I’ll post the story here.
