Laptop Arrived

So here I am posting from my new Vista laptop. This means I can start development work on MusicBridge 2.0. Unfortunatly I am finding Vista a little troublesome for my business reasons. I cannot get a Cisco VPN client that works and I can't install SQL Server 2000... This is going to be quite a transition.

Laptop Ordered

A nicely specced Dell Lattitude D820 is being built as I type, it should be here by the end of next week, maybe...

Then the real work can begin.

Feature Ideas

Please be sure to post your feature ideas over on the discussion group: http://groups.google.com/group/MusicBridge/

Italian Computer Weekly

The Italian version of Computer Weekly has asked for permission to put MusicBridge on its cover CD-ROM. I find that encouraging.

Slow Progress

Unfortunately I have decided to look for a new job, the current one just isn't working out for me so this could be good or bad for MusicBridge. I could find another job soon and be a little tied up in that, or I could quit my current job and have plenty of time for devlopment, so we shall see how it goes...

First steps

OK, so after making the decision to rewrite MusicBridge for WMP11 and Vista I sat down to at least get started. This is where I hit my first problem, it seems that I cannot download the WMP11 SDK onto my development machine (Win2k). Hmm, so I am going to need try downloading it onto my lone Vista machine (my Media Center PC) and see if I can at least move some of the SDK to my development machine.

So off to a slow start...
