Bread and Roses Web Design
// July 29th, 2010 // No Comments » // Uncategorized
Just a short note to let people know that the long-overdue 2010 version of the Bread & Roses website is coming into form.
We should have a new website up and running within a week of this post.
As 2010 is almost over, we’ll have to get started soon on the 2011 version, which we plan to add all the bells and whistles to.

I never thought I’d be happy to finally have XP+IE running in the computer room.
But here I am.
I went down to the basement and dug up a really old computer with a really fat-boy tube screen. It has a whopping 350 mb Hard drive with 700Mhz Pentium III processor.
I previously installed Puppy Linux on this guy, since I was so worried about Memory use. But…Let’s just say my wife isn’t a Techie and when I saw her crying because she couldn’t use it, well, my heart went out to her and I immediately installed XP pro. She’ll have Ubuntu on the laptop, but in the meantime we need something we can both use.
She needed a computer while she waits for a new laptop.
And I needed to be able to troubleshoot IE.
So here we are. I must have installed or formatted about 10 times in the past two weeks.
I do like Mozilla’s Seamonkey, which uses the same database for Mail and Browser.
I also set up Sunbird (it was on the same CD).
Although it’s no longer supported, I downloaded Multiple IE’s which allows me to see IE.4 and 5, which is a great tool for working through Browser compatibility problems.
