CruiseControl.NET goes one-oh
This week I'm really proud to blog that we've released version 1.0 of CruiseControl.NET . It's taken 3 years, but I believe it's been worth the wait. One of the key reasons I work on the project is that I need a tool in my day-to-day work that fulfils the features we try to implement in CruiseControl.NET, and I'm always happy when I install it, setup a project and see it running.

Sony Vaio T2XP
4 months ago I bought my latest computer - a Sony Vaio T2XP laptop. It was Jim Webber's fault - when I met him earlier in the year he pulled out an earlier model (the TR) which completely dwarfed my Dell D600. I immediately challenged him as to its practicality, and almost as soon as I had was forced to eat my words. My model, being somewhat more up to date, has a fast but power-savvy processor (1.2 GHz ULV), 1GB RAM (upgraded from the standard 512MB), 60GB hard disk, an internal DVD re-writer, firewire, USB, etc.
