Ground School
July 26, 2006

Tonight was my first class of ground school at the Waterloo airport. I'm taking the 50 hour course for work, but I'm also interested in getting a recreational license... wow, flying. It sounds dangerous, but it would be an amazing thing to learn to do.

Windows Vista
July 17, 2006

Here I am, sitting in front of Windows Vista Beta 2 for the first time. She's an interesting toy at this point. Lots of visual polish, decent/good performance, and a myriad of features that I haven't even begun to scratch the surface of. I'm relatively pleased with how different Vista is from XP... I was expecting XP with a different skin, but that's not the case at all. You can tell that a lot of thought has gone into refactoring the UI, protecting the user from the Internet, etc. There have been a few frustrations, but overall I'm impressed.
