I might of mentioned before that this place is quite old-fashioned and hierarchical. People don't like to pass bad news up the ladder. We've gone live to one department with about 20-30 users and there's smoke coming out the back of the DB server. We're scheduled to go live to a department 3 times the size at the end of January. We do have time to fix the data access but nobody wants to stand up and say "we MUST do this".
Oh well.
Note to users: if you don't tell us about bugs, it's unlikely they'll be fixed.
Other things I can't understand: the display control panel on all the machines here is restricted so we can't change our resolution. But the Services control panel is still there. Also, most of the machines have a little app with the display driver which allows you to change the resolution anyway.
That's enough moaning.
Probably going to get an M-Audio Audio Buddy 2 channel pre-amp. Looks like it'll do the job and has outputs that match the inputs on my card. There's a dealer fairly near here so might have a look at lunchtime.
Retail therapy.
Nothing much else happening. Bored.
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury
Signifying nothing.
