I am now totally wireless. I explained some of the IT misery I have suffered recently. The third time my desktop crashed, I ran out and bought a laptop, a router and an external hard drive. I then proceeded to set up a home office network, I was almost there when,,,guess what....my desktop crashed again....fatally!!!
So I am now able to work in the comfort of my living room which is nice for the kind of work I do. But the niftiest thing is the wireless capability. I have an HP iPAQ that we use to collect the water meter readings every month. It has wifi capability and I can use it to check my email and to access the web wherever I am, I am increasing degrees of freedom dramatically.
I have so far managed to do without a cellphone but I will be getting one this year to create total freedom. I am my office!

ReplyDeleteHi Don...I figured out how to join! Great garden and congratulations on wireless freedom. I have two dogs ( Westies) and a son and daughter ( both unmarried and likely to stay that way!). My passions are bonsai ( for meditation), poetry ,fishing, scuba and genealogy ( though that one is fading somewhat). I had to take up a clean life ( no vices...drink, cigs etc) after I had a cancer cut out and had to lose weight and de-stress. I am now 100% fit. I am currently on a metal recycling jag with commodity prices as high as they are....I need 600$ to buy a boat motor and have earned 100$ in a month so far....aluminum cans, copper, iron , steel....Tanya is sure I have gone nuts as I fish through hedgerows and ditches! Cheers in conservation.
