Although I do not agree with every single point stated in the article, it does conclude with a notion that reflects my opinion about the whole operating system debate.

I have to admit I kinda like the idea and found it fun to work that way. Last weekend, I decided to look up more information and books about the subject. To my surprise I found TDD to be a widely discussed and controversial subject.

Yesterday, in a weekend I need the thing the most, my Xbox 360 decided to show the Red Ring of Death. I do not know how Microsoft's Customer Support has evolved since last year, but I have found reports posted in summer 2007 of Xboxes being in repair for several weeks. So, apart from not having my favourite distraction for this weekend, I risk missing out on Fallout 3's launch...

I decided to test my reservations about this new title and loaded the clips.

One particular remark of her remained stuck in the back of my head, leaving me wondering about the validity and consequences of it: 'We will lose eventually, and there is nothing we can do about it. So why should we even resist?'.

Ten days before that enthusiasts could already order the dvd of this second Open Movie, but odds are that most of the community was probably rooting for the online event. I saw the movie yesterday and, since it was apparently missed by the t.net news queue, I thought I should give it some love. And believe me, the movie deserves it.

This morning I kissed my girl goodbye as she took a flight from Schiphol airport to Australia for a long, well deserved holiday. All in all very exciting, of course, however the thought of spending my weekends without her is not welcoming. Sure, I got more time on my hands, but having your girlfriend in a foreign country for four months is a bitter pill to...

I have also fallen to the sirens call of blogging. I figured that after learning quite some tricks from others from forums and weblogs, that I should contribute something back to the community. Oh, yeah... feel the open source mentality... . Also, since my girl is travelling through Down Under for four months, I guess I am going to need something to do in the weekends.
