Guest Carlos Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 RE: Welcome back Carlos Thanks for the warm welcome, Hugh! It is amazing how many zillions e-mail can populate your mailbox (both at work and at home) when you are out just two weeks. Also much of the software I currently use (ZTreewin, Media Player Classic, WinRAR, ffdshow, etc.) has had updates as well as the Microsoft "second Tuesday" monthly updates. I guess that tonight I will end with the updates and start working on the daily issues. I have also seen that the freeware Virtualbox (http://www.virtualbox.org) now supports x64 OS's. That is really good news because the only way to run an x64 OS on a virtual machine was using VMWare (non freeware). Thanks again! Carlos "Kue2" wrote: > {:-)))) >
Guest Charlie Russel - MVP Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 Re: Welcome back Carlos Well, no, you can run your 64bit virtual machines on Hyper-V too. Of course, that means running Server 2k8 as your OS, obviously. And having the hardware for it. But I routinely have multiple 64-bit VMs on one of my three Hyper-V servers. Glad to see you're back, Carlos. I hope your vacation was all you'd hoped for and that you're now recovered and ready to dig in and have fun. Meanwhile, a bit of warning. There appear to be even more issues than usual with messages not propagating correctly between the NNTP and Web versions of the newsgroups, and it's especially a problem for anyone using Windows Mail or Live Mail with the Community Features enabled. I know you sometimes use the web interface (I don't understand it, of course<g>), so be aware that all those "message rating things" are causing problems. -- Charlie. http://msmvps.com/blogs/xperts64 http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/charlie.russel "Carlos" <Carlos@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:873E713A-019D-4189-B33C-E3BE86E8B56C@microsoft.com... > Thanks for the warm welcome, Hugh! > It is amazing how many zillions e-mail can populate your mailbox (both at > work and at home) when you are out just two weeks. > Also much of the software I currently use (ZTreewin, Media Player Classic, > WinRAR, ffdshow, etc.) has had updates as well as the Microsoft "second > Tuesday" monthly updates. > I guess that tonight I will end with the updates and start working on the > daily issues. > I have also seen that the freeware Virtualbox (http://www.virtualbox.org) now > supports x64 OS's. > That is really good news because the only way to run an x64 OS on a > virtual > machine was using VMWare (non freeware). > Thanks again! > Carlos > > "Kue2" wrote: > >> {:-)))) >>
Guest Tony Sperling Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Re: Welcome back Carlos Yes, definitely good to have you back! It's true the Inbox tends to fill up rapidly - but you should have little trouble keeping abreast with the goings-on here? Tony. . .

Guest Charlie Russel - MVP Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 Re: Welcome back Carlos Does, doesn't it? Helps get through the LONG winter nights, at least. Though that should be improving now.

Guest Carlos Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 Re: Welcome back Carlos And down here we are steadily heading for the LONG summer days. By Dec 21st the sun will rise at 3:00AM and will be a faint light in the horizon after midnight. Current temp is 8C (almost 50F), not bad for the last days of winter though the #$%&@ patagonian wind is blowing at 40 km/h. :) Carlos "Charlie Russel - MVP" wrote: > Does, doesn't it?

Guest Charlie Russel - MVP Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 Re: Welcome back Carlos 8 degrees isn't bad for September, certainly. And you can hardly complain about the patagonian wind - it's not like you ever get much of a break from it! <G> Lows today around 10-12, highs around 24. Nothing but sun - if this keeps up, we'll actually have corn this year. Amazing given how late summer was. June-bearing strawberries didn't come in until the 2nd week in July! But this month has been lovely. Now the sunsets are coming earlier and earlier - 7:24 tonight, and it's moved at least 20 degrees further south on the horizon.
