First digital TV switch date set: “The digital TV switchover will begin in Whitehaven, Cumbria, in mid-October – paving the way for the rest of the UK.”
You know, in many regards the USA is far behind the UK, and this is one of them. Starting this year analog broadcasts are being phased out and replaced by digital transmissions only. I remember when I first moved over here, I called up AT&T to get a cable box, and was enticed into a 3 month for a digibox deal.
Spam, from myself?: “Ok, so this morning I’m checking my CrabApples.net email and notice a spam from my own address. How in the world do I stop that?”
Poor Rob, this has happened to my father before now as well.
This guy has the toy I want for Christmas. Totally awesome.

In the space of a few days I have received two gifts from Microsoft. I received Windows Vista Home Premium, and Office 2003 Professional!
It amazes me how much power a blog can have, I am presuming that Bill was reading my blog, as is his want, and noticed a couple of my blog entries (OneCare, Apple). He obviously decided to appease my frustrations, and send me these “wonderful” pieces of software…
…Or it was that phone survey I partook in a few months ago, coupled with a free upgrade to vista when I purchased my wife’s shiny new laptop…
