Well I’ve been a big fan of Parallels Desktop for the mac, running my bootcamp partition natively in Mac with coherence to allow me to run IE and my apps directly in OS X. It’s a shame then that after installing Vista SP1 when in bootcamp, that loading it in Parallels now removes the license and activation of Vista, it also removes bootcamps activation status. If you reactivate once in one type of boot then it removes the activation in the other. Thanks Parallels, I’ll stick to using Bootcamp natively until you fix it

Well it was a great 30th birthday and Beth surprised me with a stay at the City Inn, can you believe they have an iMac in every room with streaming IPTV!

We went to the King Tut Exhibition at The O2 which was great. I was a little disappointed that they didn’t have some of the more important treasures there, but I guess the egyptians will never let them leave the country, so a trip to Egypt and Cairo at sometime in the future.
