Too much to do. Too little time to do it of course. Right now I have so many priority one things to do… At the moment I am on MSN working with an Italian client testing some software. Given the distance, and the language problem there are some issues getting things running. MSN is good, but it does have limits.

There is always the problem that bugs might be related to the style of date, time, decimal points, etc. In this case I think the problem is the date format. No. I was wrong. I just dont know the difference between a row and a column. I sent over a version of the software with a bug that I fixed earlier today.

My ADSL dropped out for a minute also thanks to this. MSN has a problem with my modem in that it does not like files being sent through MSN. I had upgraded the modem but there seems to be another problem. It is definitely the modem that is the problem.

Once I got it working the client was very impressed. I like it when things just work, even after what seems to be a lot of issues. I even had a problem with the proxy settings which I had added and promptly forgotten about. Given what today has been like… I am not surprised I forgot about it.

Friday morning I need to make a quick trip into north sydney to do some quick reprogramming of some units. And then back home to do more programming and testing. I already have two things that must be done at 9AM… I guess I will be using my cellphone to do those when I am on my way in.
