I’m back on page one! Of what, you ask? Of a Google search for ‘Quentin’, of course. I used to have a regular position on the first page but those fellows Tarantino and Crisp have been getting a lot of attention recently.

I notice, with envy, that my pal John Naughton is not only on page one of the ‘Naughton’ results, but he has first place! And third place! I can only dream of such fame.

Uptime

A while ago, I replaced a Windows NT Server machine belonging to some friends with a basic Dell machine running Redhat. They’re only really using it as a file and DHCP server, but I’m pleased to see that it’s about 9 months since the last reboot:
