Random Musings - Day #87

Hot tea... not good?
Apparently having steaming hot tea increases the chance of cancer. However it does say adding milk as in the western tradition cools the tea, reducing the risk.

Busy Business
For some reason, today was extermely busy in the streets and shops of the Medway. Traffic was really bad in Rochester. Even where I live, pubs were pretty busy. Considering it was fairly cold and windy today, very surprising.

24
I am enjoying 24/7! Jon Voight as a main villian and enjoying himself whilst being evil. There is something menancing that makes him a classy villian. Anyhow I was catching on the latest episodes that I've missed and realise you can easily lose track of time, watching television and vegging out!

Tripwire
I thought tripwire was supposed to be a triggering mechanism to pick off if anyone is trying to do something/get in somewhere. But according to the company tripwire, it's a configuration controller.

Netbooks
Well looking for one now. I have decided to the follow the fad of netbooks. One of my biggest questions would be how easy it is to restore/rebuild the operating system. Well it looks like it as easy as changing the bios to boot from usb device and go from there. Here's an article where someone has installed Mac OS X on Lenovo Idea Pad. There is a comprehensive list of netbooks available too. WhatLaptop put the Acer Aspire One as he number 1 in netbooks.But for me, looking for something cheap and something easy to rebuild (and have a correct drivers available). Anyways do your own research!
