New Computer - Vista - CFEclipse and more
Well the new computer is here and running beautifully.
I bought it from this company, which my brother has used a few times. They were very good and aside from a slight delay I am quite happy.
As I mentioned before the new computer looks a bit out of control. The case has windows, blue glow and guages. Still, it is fairly quiet, and much more powerful than my last machine.
I am running Windows Vista Premuim which is basically Windows Media Center for Vista. The media center looks great. The new interface is nice, but will take a bit to get used to. I haven't tried to hook this up to my xbox 360 yet, but my notebook (xp) works connects to the 360 just fine so I don't anticipate any trouble.
I have just installed the latest build of CFEclipse. It is working well. I haven't decided what to do for an FTP client. I know the new cfeclipse has some sort of ftp built in, but I haven't played with it yet.
One thing I haven't gotten used to with Vista is the file explorer. What is the file path to my documents folder? Or whatever the equivalent is these days. So much to explore and learn. Plus, I want to install world of warcraft, but I can't find my original CD's or key. Damn it.
