Alex Harries's diary

I've just paid for software. Admittedly, I've spent the last three days trying to find a way around having to pay for a program to transfer all my information from Outlook to Entourage (the Mac version of Outlook... Or so it seems) with no luck, so I've trusted Some Random American Company (TM) with my card details and have splashed out $10 on a serial number - a string of letters and numbers any self-respecting obsessive-compulsive could probably memorise in a couple of minutes - to let me use this program that so far looks most likely to save my sanity.

We'll see whether that's true in a couple of hours - it looks like it's going to take some time for this Shiny New Program (also TM) to finish slinging all my precious information out of Outlook.

Oh, and my Macbook Pro can understand voice commands. I didn't have to train it, beat it, or even coax and bribe it - apparently it just needed to be turned on. Now I can tell my laptop to do "stuff"... Exactly what stuff that might be, I have no idea - I think it means I can play hands-free chess with my computer or something...

Right, I'm off to bed. If anyone needs me, I'll be having a small panic attack in the corner of the room again... ;o)
