How to migrate a Bootcamp partition.

February 8th, 2010

I found & secussfully used a cool program called go figure WinClone LINK to backup my Bootcamp partition to an image and re-image it into place on my new computer. I was migrating my accounts from one computer to another & I released I had no way of backing up my MS partition. In comes WinClone which works great! I just placed the old computer in “Target” firewire mode & copied out the M$ partition to a disk image on my new computer. Then partitioned and re-imaged the M$ Bootcamp on the new system.

Took 20 min tops.

My FAV screensaver just got a face lift. Checkout the new Electric Sheep

July 4th, 2009

This has to be my personal fav screen saver.

Electric Sheep is a distributed computing project for animating and evolving fractal flames, which are in turn distributed to the networked computers, which display them as a screensaver on the individual node computers of the distributed network. The process is transparent to the casual user, who can simply install the software as a screensaver. Alternatively, the user may become more involved with the project, manually creating sheep (video files of animated fractal flames) for upload to the server.

Check out the project @ www.electricsheep.org
