Unicorn has had some items with regards to it upgraded so it's not such a pain to access any more. It's a hugely general update because so much was updated to stable counterparts. I have brought some programs into the 20th century so we're finally just barely obsolete.
Upgrades are always an interesting question in the server world. In the desktop world the traffic and attacks are limited so upgrading to the latest and greatest don't lead to problems then those programs have bugs. Servers are different as the smallest flaw can be exploited and lead to the downfall of the system. Reason being that the amount of traffic and the value of a high bandwidth connection is far greater than any desktop system.

Month and a couple weeks to go so I've started making lists:
1) Get fireworks. This is very important as one cannot move and not have fireworks.
2) Buy more memory for the computers. I think the PCs could use an upgrade as well :)
3) Buy a TV.
4) Buy neat art for the walls, because that barren look is out.
5) Buy furniture? Well, we could skip this one.

Heavy server updates in progress. Believe it or not but this is actually the low traffic period.

I got tired of waiting for a Skype client from Skype (come on!) so I decided to give
Fring a try. I'm quite pleased with Fring as it allows me to have almost instantaneous Skype conversations via Wi-Fi. Also interesting is that I have an unlimited call plan with Skype within North America so I'll be using that as my primary phone when I'm at work or home. More details as I use the service.

Earlier Akshay had indicated to me that
Evan was in fact pretty crazy. I scoffed at him, after all, I am listed under most definitions of crazy. Turns out...he was right with regards to the crazy but not the circumstances surrounding the craziness. The local Ultimate touring teams are having tryouts and Evan drove from Toronto (basically downtown) all the way out here (probably a two hour drive) to run drills in the rain while he has a cold. Even the soccer team that was practicing next to us left before we did...good job Evan, you may have a footnote.
