It's indeed a sad day. This is my last blog post. The reason is simple - I have switched over to the dark side. Yip I now code in java and my desktop runs on Linux. Originally I thought I would be able to keep my blog going, because I REALLY love blogging. But after the first couple of weeks it became quite aparant that I don't have anything Microsoftish to blog about anymore. I though I might take you along on my journey of java discovery, but I decided that this site is not the right forum for that and will probably just provoke a flood of oposition etc.

Kudos to Armand for creating a brilliant SOUTH AFRICAN developer community. I have not found it's equal in the java world. In fact, I'm still struggling to find a site where I can java blog for free.

So that's all folks, hope I added some value here and there in the couple of months my when blog was going good.

PS : it took some time to get this post up - the firewall at work would not let me submit it. But tonight is my first night on Hellkom dial-up, so here it is! ( my conversion to the dark side is complete :) - and YES, I am to cheap to get ADSL)
