Hi all,

with some delay I finally want to join the mailing list of the lovely 
people I met some weeks ago at Greg's place.

Greg, I owe you a big 'thank you' for this invitation. Was good to be 
there:-)

Last weekend I went with my son to Ballarat and it already seemed so long 
ago that I was there, after the BBQ. My bicycle brought me to the town in 
time, it was a nice ride through a great landscape, fields, forrest, 
clouds, until it turned dark before I reached the outskirts of Ballarat.

I wonder what I did over the last three weeks.. Not much, I am afraid. 
Work kept me busier than wanted, including the night calls to fix things, 
and I sacrified some more hours of sleep by watching soccer. Well, after 
the Aussies went home, the Germans were running out of luck too, so I can 
enjoy the final as a neutral observer.

It is Friday and my colleagues went out for drinks, I am keeping the 
fortress although I feel thirsty too.. gives me some time to play around 
with the shiny new IBM x3650 M3. Just my plan to install OpenSolaris does 
not go too well, the hardware is "too shiny" with EFI etc. It seems to 
need some ACPI tweaking and first time it booted successfully the monitor 
went black when it went graphical. The joy of GUI installers..

(I would like to use FreeBSD but my Java colleagues were burnt in the 
past..)

I wish you all a wonderful weekend
Peter
