Getting the laptop up to speed
Published on February 10, 2004 By Draginol In Work Reports
I didn't realize that the newer laptop didn't have Visual Stuido. In fact, it doesn't have development tools on it in general! Having gotten in at 11am I spent most of the day pouring through email, getting DesktopX 2.1 announced, and taking care of various "biz stuff".

At 9pmish I got home and started on getting the laptop ready which included downloading the 200+ meg DirectX 9 SDK. Good grief it's huge. And stupid too as it it's just a bit self extracting EXE with an installer in it. Would it realy kill them to launch the installer?

I remembered the source code for the project but not Pear. So this will be the first real test of FolderShare to do something useful. I realy wish we had our own network independent file syncronizing tool ready since FolderShare is...well kind of crummy but I may get to see if it's useful now.
