If you want to set up a relatively simple yet powerful version control system on a Windows server, and you don’t want to spend any money on it, I recommend CVS. Start with CVSNT. Use Tortoise CVS as a front-end. Then, check this page for a quick and easy way to set up ViewCVS. Worked for me.

Beyond Compare
I’ve spent an inordinate amount of time lately looking at file synchronization software. I’ve been playing around with Vice Versa Pro for a week or so, and it works reasonably well. I stumbled across Beyond Compare today, though, and I think I’ll probably switch to that. It’s got a slightly nicer interface, and it’s got interesting scripting capabilities.
iBook back
The iBook is back, in one piece, and working dandy! I’m a very happy person. They didn’t have to reformat or replace my hard drive, so I didn’t lose any data.
iBook away
I gave my iBook to a nice man at the Menlo Park Apple Store today so they could send it back to Apple and replace the logic board. I should have it back in a week or two, and (hopefully) they won’t nuke the hard drive in the process.

SXSW
I finally got around to pulling all the songs I downloaded from the SXSW site into iTunes. 775 songs, just over 2 days worth of music. I’m really not sure how to approach listening to any of it. Just picking a few things at random, there seems to be a lot of good stuff in there.
Jonathan Coulton – Mandelbrot Set
I heard this song on a podcast yesterday, and just loved it. It really reminds me of RPI.
Animation Now
I just bought tickets for this. It should be fun, even if a lot of the Dreamworks stuff isn’t that great. I’m definitely interested in whatever Wallace & Gromit stuff they’ve got ready.

Water
It looks like I can drink water from my tap again. Yay!
