Things are finally starting to settle down here, it’s been an interesting few weeks but I think probably one of the best choices I’ve made (as Dominic said it would be many months ago). Luckily for me I managed to get accommodation which had Internet, Sadly coupled with the world’s harshest non UPnP firewall (which prevented me sending email for the first week). Everything seems to be going well, I even like my flat mates which is great. October 1^st also marked my 3^rd year as being a member of the Microsoft MVP program. This year I have switched from Windows Shell/User to Windows Media Center as my primary area. Over the past year Media Center is a product I’ve become much more interested in, so thanks to Microsoft for recognizing me in this area.
