FedEx and UPS both delivered yesterday. My laptop has now been upgraded from 1.25GB to 2GB RAM. This second 1GB PC2700 SODIMM cost just under $200 vs. $250 for the first one around three months ago. I wish that desktop PC2700 prices were falling that quickly…
For my desktop I ordered an internal SIIG USB 2.0 9-in-1 R/W Card Reader + Floppy Drive. I’m not sure that it actually reads more types of memory cards than my old Sandisk ImageMate 6-in-1, but I liked idea of getting one more thing off of my desk.
I got some toner for my printer too.
And I’ve moved up to Movable Type 3.11. It would have been entirely painless except that I needed to track down the couple of source code tweaks I’ve made. I’ve turned on comment moderation, and when I get around to figuring out the necessary template modifications I will require Typekey registration. I’ve been lucky to only get a trickle of comment spam, but I’m tired of people not providing their correct email address…
Update: Looks like I’ve been hit by the Search Throttle Bug.
Update 2: Forgot about my tweaks to make the <textarea> boxes bigger. Height is in mt/tmpl/cms/edit_entry.tmpl. Width is in the stylesheet. Trying to mentally re-construct someone else’s CSS box model is a recipe for a headache. For a dynamic width, remove the width: lines from .body-wrap and .body-nav, and change the .body-nav margin: line to margin: 0px 15px 15px 125px;
