My Windows Vista Ultimate experience
June 23, 2007 by Ronald Hicks.
I’ve had this PC that I have assembled myself up and running now for about a month. I am using Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit and so far the experience has been fairly good. The one thing that is really currently nagging me is the fact that I spent $200+ for a Creative soundcard that is not functioning. Part of the reason is due to the DRM( Digital Rights Management ) built into Windows Vista and Creative being unprepared with the drivers and software for their hardware products. I have unceasingly complained about the lack of support on Creative’s web forum.

The spinyball postcard
June 15, 2007 by Ronald Hicks.
Greetings,
I have tweaking and refining the new computer that I have built for 49th birthday. There are three main objectives that I want to carry out with this new machine.
- A smoother and faster system for my graphic applications including video and 3-D animation
- Recording my occasional guitar pieces.
-
Using the Internet to do research and communicate with other people.
I also wanted a system that was powerful enough to watch an occasional news clip or listen to music. So far I have accomplished these objectives.

My honeydew in Canada
June 9, 2007 by Ronald Hicks.
This is a special card that I have made for my sweetiepie in Ontario, Canada. I have recently been drawing a lot calligraphy ornamentation in my pocket sketchbook while at work. Many years ago when ago when I started out my artistic career/hobby I was doing calligraphy. I did well with the lettering aspects and using the ink nibs but I found the finish part of a piece of calligraphy called ornamentation really fascinated me. Now that I use the computer for my creative tool I have been inspired to dress up this photograph with some traditional ornamentation. I hope you enjoy it and I know that my honeydew in Canada will:)
