DVD,DW,VPN,FTP,Parallels,XP & WWDC
This week has gotten off to a wild ride.
First after coming in with a hangover from rebuilding my laptop I quickly realized that the software I installed over the weekend to finish up a DVD authoring job gone bad on Friday was not the software I needed to do a web job waiting for me Monday morning. I did have Dreamweaver installed so that was good. The sucky part was this account requires a VPN connection to the host environment, then I can open a FTP session with the hosting server (WHEW) to make matters worse this is all over a NORTEL VPN network which has not updated their Mac client software since the old days of OS 9. (A LONG TIME AGO). So, here I go installing Parallels, and Windows XP which takes FOREVER to install. I do have one good thing that came of all this. Apple's WWDC was happening that gave me the opportunity to watch several twitter accounts rather than stare aimlessly at little blue loading bars.
I think my thoughts on the WWDC require another post.
