Despite the original published facts from other sources stating that this isn't going to be done until june/july of 2006. Still if it works and if I can get it I will So I [...]

• I think Brit Gary McKinnon has done the US a favour…

  Posted: 01 May 2006 at 19:24 by Julian Guppy

  A recent article in the sydney morning herald talks about the US response to his hacking activities over the last few years. To me their response seems somewhat excessive considering that all he appears to have done is shown and highlighted weaknesses in their security. In fact it was stated "He sai

  Posted: 26 Mar 2006 at 16:47 by Julian Guppy

  Although linux loving geeks have been saying this for several years and it is certainly not a new question.

• Do you run a creative services firm?

  Posted: 26 Mar 2006 at 16:15 by Julian Guppy

They help you realise value and are well connected with public sector organisations to create jobs and wealth.
