Building a Theme for Trac

If there is one thing that annoys me it is the lack of helpful documentation around a task for popular scripts and applications. One of those such tasks is Building a Trac Theme. This will be the first guide I have compiled and I don’t intend on making it my last, so feedback and comments would be welcomed.

The Computer: Part 5

After all this time, planning and me wishing I had a computer that I could play some high quality games on, I now have it and I could not be happier. Actually I could be happier, but for now the computer will be enough to keep me happy. So keep reading and see what all this time and money has gone towards

The Computer: Part 4

The new computer is now built. The operating system still needs to be installed and that is be covered in the next post, where the computer will be named. All the components are brand NEW none are 2nd Hand, Refurbished or even factory seconds. Continue reading to see what the computer now has and to see an updated picture.

The Computer: Part 3

I’m now closer to having a brand new computer. I can now turn it on but cannot install the operating system yet as there is no optical drive and to see anything I have to plug it into my current 17″ 4:3 LCD monitor. I have done that and it works. Not that I expected it not to work. It detects that there is a 500GB HDD, 4GB RAM and the 1GB of dedicated memory on the graphics card. If this computer does not play RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 (RCT3) I will be very upset. All the components are brand NEW none are 2nd Hand, Refurbished or even factory seconds. Continue reading to see what the computer now has and to see an updated picture.

The Computer: Part 2

It has been a while but I have finally got around to getting another few pieces to the new computer. Once again this computer is not yet finished but it should be quite a beast when it is done. All the components are brand NEW none are 2nd Hand, Refurbished or even factory seconds. Continue reading to see what the computer now has and to see an updated picture.

New Computer: Part 1

This may come to a shock to the people that know me. I’m a programmer, actually I’m a interent application developer (fancy name for “a person that makes websites an stuff”), and I have never had a high-end gaming PC. I have a few high-end games on the PC but have always had to play them with the lowest level of graphics and details possible. Well those days are now numbered…

OMG Colour Laser Printer

I don’t know if this was an impulse buy or not but it feels like one. I saw the printer on the Oz Stock website and the price was the same for a mono laser printer without a network option.

OK… I was looking at getting a networkable laserr printer but not really a colour one. I paid under $200 for a colour laser printer. So what are the specs? It prints that is all I care.

Here is the printer

Samsung CLP-300N

Print Speed (Colour): 4 ppm
Print Speed (Mono): 17 ppm
Connections: 10/100 Ethernet, USB 2.0

Toners do about 2000 pages of 50% coverage, which is not that bad when I compared it to the coverage of the Lexmark ink jet we also have.

I’ve included some pictures on the rest of the post
