Did you know that in the US, they don't have beetroot on their hamburgers? In fact, when I was over there I asked a hamburger guy about it, and he didn't know what I was talking about. You guys are missing out! Wikipedia has an interesting list of hamburger ingredients from around the world on...
Thought I'd post a few comments about my new DVD player, the Denon DVD-1930. Although the 1930 has been available overseas for some time, it was only released in Australia a few weeks ago, so with any luck this post will draw some interested Aussie readers here. The 1930 is an upscaling DVD player. That...
Remember that awesome SCART RGB cable I imported for the Xbox 360? It's yours, if you want it. I don't need it now that I have my new TV. I've posted a For Sale message over on HTCentral . Leave a reply there if you're interested, or drop me a note here....
Another month and another AWDNUG meeting, and if you missed this one you should be kicking yourself. Michael from Border Express gave an excellent presentation about SQL Server replication, breaking down the different types of replication, the pros and cons of each type, and how (and what) to monitor...

Currently the 360 has a great interface for streaming pictures, music and video from your PC. You do all the content...
I hear a lot of people asking Microsoft to add web browsing functionality to the Xbox 360 dashboard. I'm starting to think that this wouldn't be a good idea. For starters, unless you have a high definition TV, you're running a resolution of either 480 or 576 pixels in height. When was the...
After a few hours' playtime on the weekend, I managed to progress a little further into Dead Rising . Man, this is a frustratingly-difficult yet kick-ass fun game. I've had it for ages and yet I'm still only up to dawn on the second day, which means I'm less than a third of the way through the 72-hour...
