It would seem that the world over are going QR code or QR tag you are even starting to see them in the us in a few magazines and web sites mainly on the west coast. Even Google is jumping on the bang wagon and if Google does it Microsoft cant be to far behind… well not quite, M$ has created there own code and there own reader that is in no way shape or form even remotely compatible with good all QR code

can you guess which is which. Now I have no clue why M$ would other than Google supports one so they want to be different or even they want to create a new standard. So in essence we have a whole new standards war forget Xbox or Playstion, even HD DVD or Blu-ray we now have Microsoft Tag vs QR Code another in a long line of East coast West coast rivalry. 

A lot of people have jumped on the Mac bandwagon, even to the point of hacking it on a non Mac computer… Including me. I have always like Mac since 8.1 and have worked with it on and off. But I cold never bring myself to buy one just to expensive and I need windows, I know need is such a strong word but its true everything I need to do is written for windows. It’s simple if you work in the real world you have to use windows and that is pretty impressive to have the whole world hooked to your brand. So I finally read about Mac going to Intel chips, and how that improved the promise of a Mac OS on a non Mac computer coupled by the fact that the underling code in a Mac is BSD and I worked heavenly with Linux at a Data Centre with Dedicated Servers which were almost always Linux Red Hat, BSD, Centos and Fedora Core. So I could finally have both my Linux fix and Mac all in the same serving.

I bought a Lenovo S10e from Japan for 3500円 not a bad price at all and it promise to be ultra portable and run Mac very well.

I dived into in and download the MSIWind 10.5.5 and ran it very well in try boot with XP, 7

XP for work, 7 to test and it just look and performed a lot better than XP and then my Mac that ran well and did a lot so much better than windows but a few things just did not work as well and I have to switch OS to do with a need done; like Liver writer whish is a joy to work with i run asdm tool for Cisco routers and SecureCRT for routers , Switches and those like and a host of other apps that I have to have if I am to work. But for the things that Mac does It does right, with the underlying code that is BSD i run tons of Linux apps that makes the os a dream to have. I have updated the Snow Leopard 10.6.1 and it is Fast, Fun, Freaking awesome to look at.

There are lots of tools out there but I used the the Snow Leopard Enabler [RTM] you mush read the manual; if you follow that manual that is all you will need its that simple. Done.

Now if you are like me and have tested Windows 7 to the fullest and do not want to wipe one last time then this is for you. I have used Windows 7 for a Year now and enjoy it very much so but did not want to have to wipe my machine so here is a work around that can help elevate your Windows 7 migration blues

The upgrade is possible. You just have to do a bit of mucking around. To perform the upgrade, do the following:

1. Copy the contents of the ISO or DVD to a separate storage location (such as a bootable USB storage device, a separate partition or whatever)
2. Open the file \sources\cversion.ini in a text editor and modify the MinClient number to a number lower than the version Windows 7 that you want to upgrade from – so for the beta you would set this to something like 6900.
3. Save the file and then run the install routine from the location with the modified file

Just want to test this out, see how it feels and if it is a good blogging tool. I usually use Windows Live Writer for most of my blogging needs and use the wordpree builtin edit if I want more tweeking. Now I wonder how to add pics or anything like that…. Huh

I have been beta tested Microsoft Windows 7 since 4xxx release, and now that I am already running the final release code, I have noticed that a lot of Japanese websites still have  issues with Windows 7, Internet Explore 8 and Windows Media Player 12. It could be that Japanese are slow to adapt; working for HP I know this is to be true. Not all Japanese buy the best and the latest. If it works why change it for a new one.  We in the west are use to getting our technology heavily marked down while the Japanese don’t usually. So But once they buy, it is an investment and they don’t buy again until the others break. We in the West are more likely to buy a new one just cause we found one that matches our new mode, or just because the neighbour next door got one.

Gyao!［ギャオ］and MoraWin [モーラ ウィン]is the main two sites I have been looking forward to seeing working with the new Media Player 12 which looks great it hands down the best media player to date. Also Microsoft should bring back Karaoke their has not been any since media player 9.

Had a huge problem when i updated to the new WordPress 2.8.4 and I tried to upload my post using LiveWriter, it started giving me errors XMLRPC500 errors. I tried to upgrade my php, even tried to add lines to my xmlrpc.php file. But all to no avail it just would not work but then I came across this page ardentdev XMLRPC 500 Fix, and that fixed me right up all had to so was update my wordpress database

cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\bin\"

mysql.exe –u root -p
Enter password: ***********************

Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.

Type ‘help;’ or ‘\h’ for help. Type ‘\c’ to clear the buffer.

mysql> use crowdspace
Database changed
mysql> ALTER TABLE wp_posts CHANGE post_parent post_parent BIGINT;

the fist part of open mysql.exe from the command line or you can just go start programs and click on the cmd icon there and it opens it up for you. then where says crowdspace please insert your blog database name.

and that is it

My favorite Japanese restaurant just closed down leaving me feeling blue… however on my way home from kendo 剣道 I saw a new restaurant opened up called KiKu 菊花.

The family enjoyed themselves immensely. Which you can see for yourself

also the atmosphere was very warm and friendly.

The menu consist of Habachi 火鉢 Sushi 寿司  and food from the kitchen served through a conveyor system 回転 (kaiten).

I found a great xls format that was great for making printable flash cards.

just open these files and the file should already be setup for you to print just do a quick preview to make sure it is all setup  the way it should with the paper source as index card or 3 X 5 and set to landscape. and you will need 46 index cards for each file for a total of 92 cards.

also here is a chart i made that is printable pdf enjoy

These are only a few of my goodies more to come.
