10th April 2009: So, I had last night off, which means another little personal blog entry rather than a work entry.  I actually had a really good night last night.  I played roulette via Roulette Nation on Virgin One, and you know what?  I had a really good time.  A much better experience than I was expecting.  I was only going to play for an hour, but in the end, I played for an hour and a half.  I do need to give a big shout out to Ruth at Roulette Nation for making the night a really fun one.  Great presenter.  Cute, a redhead, just a little too thin for my tastes, but funny. Then I spent a little time setting up the GPS on my new Nokia E90.  Very nice little system.  It's actually more accurate than Google Maps.  Google Maps tells me I am in the wrong place on my road.  My GPS told me that I was at the end of another road, not my road.  And you know what?  Technically that was true.  My back garden comes out into another road, and this is where my GPS told me I was.  Now, considering that I was in our conservatory at the back of my house, this was true.  I was impressed. Plus, I have installed Windows 7 on a spare laptop I have.  And you know what?  I'm somewhat impressed.  Loving the new logo.  Loving how Windows 7 automatically does compatibility mode for older software (like The Sims).  However, I'm going to use the latest in Microsoft software to do highly important tasks.  Play The Sims, Poker, Roulette, mission critical stuff.  Whilst my Linux laptops will be doing unimportant things like running my blogs, running Skype, business e-mails.  That kind of thing.  Yes, Microsoft, truely you have converted me.
