I have come to the conclusion that eBay is fickle. I just sold a couple of items on there… One item I got about three times what I expected, and the other I got about half. Actually the second item …
I mentioned yesterday that I had some issues with reports. I was getting average speeds that were in the hundreds of KM per hour. The reason is somewhat obvious now that I know. Let me explain… I have two variables …
I finished the box today… Or at least phase one. It is partially comissioned, but is as comissioned as it needs to be right now. The box contains a couple of SonyEricson GPRS modules. It also has space for another …
A few interesting things… First is that I have a meeting on Thursday afternoon about the child care centre. This is not an organisation I want to be on the board of, and certainly do not want to be on …
