MSDN installs
Is there a way to install the MSDN library on a network share? If I've got 16 people in a class, having that 1gb of data on each machines seems silly. I would think that they could just put the index on each machine locally like the VS6 MSDN, and then retrieve the content remotely. Am I just overlooking an option here?

Development Computer
Ok, so I've gotten my home PC up and running. Seems to be going great. Here are the requirements I set forth when building the thing:

my monkeys wanna go to Arnhem
According to Daypop, this is the #19 entry:
i am back ! :) my monkeys wanna go to Arnhem,so i'll be alone here..wOw man cool..!! ey guys i lost my ring :( i really need it and i'm still looking for it,but till now i can't find it..my dolphin's ring,my favorite's ring :( ada pesen neh..buat ollie,bagus tuch layoutnya! gitu dong lie,it's cool man!!, erwin,lha ko biru? lagie ngedit layoutnya yah? moga² sukses slalu ;),L,oke deh tenang ajah...tgl 15 ya?
I'm going to set myself on fire. I wonder if blogger.com did this on purpose. I mean, it is pretty clear that someone submitted sites to daypop that would drive blogger.com marketting onto the list (which I believe happened a week ago), and now those sites are junking up everything else. I wonder how hard it would be to create a .NetPop service that handles all the .NET blogs (or any dev blog for that matter)...

Daypop and Blogspot
Man oh man has
Blogspotblogger.com ruined Daypop. I'm not saying I have the best weblog in the world, or perhaps even in even in my apartment complex, but how do Lucy's Website, ::BUTCHER KNIVES::, +eye-candy+, caricature, and other crap make it on the list. We'll, because all these people submitting their sites to Daypop, and then having on the left hand side "most recently updated Blogspot web pages." They hit the daypop traversal magic hour, and suddenly they are on the Top 40. I'm calling shenanigans and saying that Daypop should just ignore links to Blogspot.com sites fromother blogspot.comblogger.com sites. -
Shellacking
Louisville is taking it to Houston right now, so I thought I'd play with my little blog for a bit. One thing I'd personally like is a toolbar icon for inserting an image, that'd be kinda handy and some how keeping the toolbar from scrolling too...

Windows Update
Just put together a new PC, so I'm windows update installing all the fixes (32 Critical Updates and Service packs for the record). Sweet sassy mollassy is this thing slow. It's been installing for the past 30 minutes. I'm worried it has something to do with the PC, but it seems pretty peppy in everything but Windows Update. The problem is that this machine is for my dad, so I need to make sure it is solid as can be before he takes delivery. I think I'll download Sandra and run some benchmarks...

Mobo
My new motherboard and video card are sitting at the UPS hub at the airport here in Louisville. Won't be delivered until tomorrow it looks like. My family ordered a PC from gateway and had to pay $100+ to have the computer shipped 4 miles.
