1000 Bornes® HD or Mille Bornes® – $0.99

I’m not really sure why, but I’ve always been a big fan of this game. I love the simplicity and fun. Many months ago I found Millarium which is a nice rendition of the game for the iPad. Sadly, that game has disappeared, which means no updates or fixes. But, to my excitement, I found another Mille Bornes game, this time with cartoony graphics and bobbleheads. It appears there are two versions which I can only assume are the iPhone and iPad games converted to be a Universal app. If you’re a fan of Mille Borne, or card games in general you might want to check this one out. It’s only a dollar so I hardly think you can go wrong. Give it a shot and tell me what you think. My copy is downloading now.   Mille Bornes® 1000 Bornes® HD

Server 2008 and Exchange 2010

Yay! I did it! After some trickery with IIS and a few other network services I had Windows 2008 ready to accept the power of Exchange 2010. I’m stunned that Exchange only took 12 minutes to completely install. And it was working too. I was able to make mailboxes and set properties. The only thing left to do is log into OWA and see if this baby really works. By the way, I forgot just how annoying IE is on a Windows Server. You can’t go anywhere with that damn security in place. Solution? Damn right, download Firefox.

Oops, steady on …

Let’s not forget some DCPromo action. I jumped ahead of myself and forgot all about making an Active Directory domain. Oh, how I long for the days of NT4 when every machine was a Domain Controller and you could go for broke right outta the gate. Every problem could be solved by bringing up another PDC or BDC. Curse this wicked planning!

Pepino is sporting Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

The first step to enlightenment is to get Windows Server up and running, and honestly it took less than 10 minutes. The install was over before I realized. If nothing else, Microsoft has built a kickass installation routine into the new versions of Windows. I now have the 180-day eval copy installed into Virtualbox. I’d love to have the real version to work with, but 180 days should be plenty for me to get my bearings. And if not, well, I have the thrill and excitement of starting over. But, it anyone wants to contribute to my Windows Server 2008 DVD fund I’m more than willing to accept donations. Next up, Exchange 2010… cue the dramatic music.
