...it's as if dozens of voices cried out in terror and were silenced.
Seems the Zune wasn't ready for leap-year 2008... 366 days in 2008 have caused the Zune to crash at boot.
May I say, Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha~~~aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh.
Stupid Microsoft.

Synergy Love
Oh, how I love the program "synergy"
But, that is like saying, Oh, How I Love VI!.
Synergy is old, not developed anymore, and difficult to configure; however, once it has been set up, it works great!

What Synergy is... A quick summaryAlso, this seems to allow me to use the open rage for another computer. I've configured the upper right half of my Linux desktop to connect to my PowerMac G4, however, I don't have this guy powered on presently, so I haven't verified that this works yet.
Synergy is a small console program that when configured and ran will allow you to connect two computers and two monitors to one keyboard and mouse over a network connection. This allows you to have something that looks like dual monitors with an extended desktop. But it has a huge advantage in the fact that it is an entirely separate computer, allowing for different not only different processing power and storage, but even an entirely different operating system.
I just got done configuring up synergy to connect from my Linux desktop to my MacBook. But, I added a stipulation, from Linux, it will only transfer from the lower right side of the monitor to the laptop and from the MacBook will only go back to the Linux PC from the middle (range 25% to 75%) of the left side. This decreases the number of times that I'll accidentally move from one computer to another.

How May I Ruin Your Day?
On 11/26, I sent an email to one of our vendors (who shall remain nameless).
Their response back on 11/28 was: Please provide your Financial Account and Billing Account numbers.
On 11/29 I provided such information.
On 12/4, I asked for a status update.
On 12/5, they asked for an order number.
On 12/5, I indicated that we didn't have an order number and I was getting more and more concerned that the order was never placed.
On 12/8, they informed me that I didn't have authorization to place the order, but my co-worker, who had requested that I have access to such ordering abilities and confirmed with her manager that I was authorized for such a level of access in October, could email them and place the order in my place.
Oh, and the order? It is for a small chip that our vendor ships for free. Apparently, I don't have that level of clearance.
