You’re looking at an ancient post shared from Digg. Obviously this offer is no longer around and the page long gone. The Internet Archive has a copy of the original Digg post including comments. Little did I know Vista was going to be such a flop, I remember installing and really liking it!

Two weeks holiday

I’m in the middle of a two week break, during which time I’m having to cope with a lack of technology! However, armed with my trusty PDA and a WiFi connection I’m able to bring you this update. 🙂

The first three nights were spent at a Travelodge in Berwick upon Tweed, the past two in Durham at a conveniently WiFi enabled hotel. And today, we will be travelling to Kent to stay with my grandparents.

A week to go!

It’s no longer a group event, just me and Nick, unfortunately Tom and Dave had to drop out after being denied time off work. 🙁

I estimate I have £87 of sponsorship money.

We’ll no doubt go to the Apple Store after, upload some snaps and blog the event!
