Its been awhile! The site updates were finished and now its time to get back to the blog. I ask that anyone reading this to please join my Forums. I would really like to see them grow and prosper.
The ThinkPad 570 Server (TP570S) is up and running. Now I have a wireless USB 1.1 160GB hard drive. It also acts as a shared printer. Seems like a good fitting use for a old laptop with a totally broken hinge if I do say so myself! The thing wouldn't get any other use so I think this is the perfect way to use it till it dies. So far, uptime has been a day. I will keep track of how many days it lasts. I should have used Linux but it is easier to do with XP.
I am really interested in trying to get the drive mapped on my PDA. Its easy to get it mapped on a computer. I have tried Total Commander and the built in file explorer and so far neither have worked. I am not really that concerned with getting it working as the one PDA that I do most of my code on doesn't have anything except dialup. So unless I get a WiFi card for it, I am not worried about PDA access.
The best reason to have this drive though is backup. This will make restoring my Acer much easier now. I could keep all I need in it! Just map the drive and there is all my files!
