What Have You Done : 5th December 20125th December 2012 Ups What did you get done this week.

Windows 8 rant. >-021st October 2012 I think 'signed' implies they have checked your program is 'safe' and 'trusted' (by their definition). It is also required to put stuff on the Windows Store, and that's the only way to distribute a program that uses the new Metro interface. |

Windows 8 rant. >-021st October 2012 What I was reading was that it was essentially on the lines of: any existing program can run in the 'desktop' mode of Windows 8, but to take advantage of any of the new Metro features your program has to be signed and go through the Windows Store, giving t*snip* |

What Have You Done : 3rd October 20129th October 2012 The thing is still functional and usable, but various little niggles keep popping up. Some I have squashed. Others continue, like the laptop forgetting the volume my USB headset was at last time it was on, and resetting it to 50% (it didn't used to do this*snip* |

iOS623rd September 2012 The articles I'd read implied that all the data came from TomTom and was the same stuff they use for their current maps, so I assumed it was all up-to-date. Is that not so? |

iOS623rd September 2012 But if it worked for data set up in a similar way, just for the US, then how could it work so horribly over here? I'd have thought that a well-designed solution would work equally well anywhere? |

iOS622nd September 2012 Given that the data they got from TomTom, being the data they use for their mapping system, would presumably be accurate, I assume the problems here are caused by Apple's software incorrectly processing the accurate data? In which case, how on earth do you*snip* |
