I’ve been attempting to install City Select Europe v6 on my Vista PC and I’ve been running into all sorts of issues so I sent them an email. After receiving their prompt response and trying the suggestions I called their customer service number. It seems I should have a Setup CD, CD 1 of 2 and CD 2 of 2. Well it turns out I’ve misplaced the Setup CD (not sure why there is a setup.exe on CD1) and they are sending me a new one for free no questions asked. I’m very impressed with their customer service!

Run Windows on it with Bootcamp and Parrallels
Hmmm…
Apart from the obvious fact it’s not more secure. If your primary reason for moving to the Mac is it’s more secure than Windows (and that is a reason for a whole lot of people) why then do so many people run Windows on it?

I needed to draw a quick diagram for my earlier post on by value and by reference variables in C#. The obvious choice is Visio but I don’t use it frequently enough to make it worth buying (cheapskate aren’t I). The next thing I looked at was MSPaint and Photoshop, while both of these are fine for drawing simple pictures and/or editing photos neither are any good for drawing diagrams.
A quick web search later turned up Gliffy which allows you to draw Visio like diagrams in a browser. It’s actually amazingly usable and you can create 5 diagrams for free before you have to start paying them.
I have to say I can’t think of any reason you’d want to store all your diagrams on the web but it’s a very cool little tool and a great example of what is possible in a browser.

Microsoft have announced a new development centre in Vancouver due to open this Autumn (still can’t bring myself to say Fall). I think this is really good news for IT in Vancouver, especially Microsoft focused development. I’d also really like to work for Microsoft one day. Will certainly be keeping my eyes peeled for more news on this.
