I selected a few of the sakura photos I took earlier this month and made them in iPad retina display resolution. Feel free to download them from the Wallpaper page!

OSX Lion installation is probably one of the most hassle free and simple OS installation I have experienced. After launching the OSX Lion installation downloaded from Mac App Store, there are only a few screens until the end of the installation:
- Agree to EULA
- Choose a Drive
- Restart

What do you use to keep track of your personal projects? How about for your work? I tried a lot of different ways to keep track of my tasks but I was never pleased with the different tools I used to use. They are either difficult to use, or they are limited to one or two platforms. With the number of devices and computers I use, depending on where I am and what I have with me, those tools didn’t satisfy all of my needs. And then it came Wunderlist!

I have been using Elegant Grunge for a little more than a year and it is about time to update the look and feel of my personal blog. Been looking around a bit and ran across this WordPress theme called Platform by PageLines.

Finally I have Ubuntu setup the way I like on the Acer easyStore h340 Windows Home Server hardware. I did not employ any Drive Pooling software as I experienced it on Windows Home Server and I didn’t quite like it. This time, I want my files to be stored in a more standardized, redundant, fault tolerant setup: RAID10. Here is the steps I went through to get my 8 x 1TB drives setup to two separate software RAID10 arrays, creating an effectively ~4TB of redundant storage.
Disclaimer: I am new to Linux and do not know enough about what I am doing. If you follow these steps and resulted in data lost, I am sorry but I can’t be held responsible…. other than that, hope this helps you with what you need to accomplish.
Google SketchUp 8 is probably one of the easiest to learn 3D design software. It is very easy to understand concepts like draw a shape and extrude it to become a three dimensional object. With the free version of Google SketchUp, you can use simple shapes to create a quick 3D space. Here I have an example of how I used Google SketchUp to help my sister design her study room.

Been busy lately geeking out at home. First got my Logitech MX Revolution mouse charging problem fixed. And now I have been playing around with Ubuntu for a few days, trying to run it on the Acer easyStore h340 Home Server which was running my Windows Home Server. Why? I have been growing uneasiness about saving my files on the Windows Home Server. Here is what has been happening….
