I was woken up at 9am, my mate I go to dinner with, apparently a guy who joined up yesterday and then had an issue because his username was too long, called up and left some rather unnice messages.

I noticed at this point it was hot.

I called the guy up. explained the situation, and fixed his problem. He apologised, because he was not aware of the situation.

I then decided to start making some documentation. I have made notes of most of the stuff we know about, and put in necessary details. There is a hell of a lot of stuff we do not know.

I wanted to do something to get away from this heat, like go to the beach, but I thought if I did that, I would not have the motivation to do the documentation, and would keep putting it off, or end up not doing it.

My turbonet card turned up yesterday, I didn't get home til late last night, so my brother just gave it to me.

I called up the branch office for Abit, to chase up getting my board fixed/replaced. The guy asked me to send through a bunch of details, serial number etc, which I couldn't find.

I was just about to pull the board out, so I could find the serial number, I decided to have one more go with it, before taking out all 600 screws to get the board out.. what do you know, the bloody thing booted!

I put it all back together, and sent an email to the tech to let him know not to worry.

So now I'm preparing to put the card in my Tivo, and start ripping videos. I've stopped now (2pm) to have some breakfast (pizza :-) I'll spend a bit of time mucking around with Tivo etc, and then I will call my mate up to find out the procedure for setting up ADSL, so I can write some technical documentation on that.
