Mild sore throat this morning upon waking. Morning run: 25 minutes. Usual oatmeal breakfast. Document scanning for Sue. Troubleshot problems with network scanning (no solution yet). Installed Boot Camp beta onto Chris's MacBook Pro. Sent a new SATE poster to Tiki for review. Helped student MC with questions about handhelds and software. Set up Windows XP SP2 on the MacBook Pro. Error 0x8dddd0001 when attempting to connect to update.microsoft.com. Resolved it using a solution I found on the net—delete all temporary internet files and restart and restart again. Lunch: Panda Express. My fortune: Don't ignore your needs in the area of new challenges. Ran Apple Hardware Test on the MacBook Pro—clean. Installed Clippy for Carol. (She requested it.) Installed Acrobat 8 Professional for Chris's MacBook Pro. Resolved my OS X and Active Directory binding problem but I don't know how—it simply worked and I didn't do anything different. Uninstalled Windows Defender and reinstalled Spy Sweeper for my computer and Cindy's. Labelled my USB drive with my phone number. Dinner at PDD's: Danny's pho. Andy's last night in San Francisco. I helped him secure and clean up his computer. We were thinking of going to Beard Papa, but they closed at 8 PM. We were also thinking of going to Bombay for ice cream, but I convinced them to stay in because it was freezing outside.
