back to memory lane... my first computer was 286 clone... i thik it had 640k of memory and has a monochrome monitor... our school had same types computers but still has about two or three green monitors plus 2 colored monitors.. in a few months the 386's have arrived with VGA monitors and 3 1/5 drives... it was also the first time i saw windows 3.0... ang gandang tingnan kasi very different from the DOS that we used from our 5 1/4 boot floppies... syet! wordstar was the killer app in our school at that time and also lotus 123...

hika sa init ng araw...

grabe ang init ngayon!!!

whew! got a boatload of work piling up... time to drown myself one coffee cup at a time...

vacation is over... back to work... am still experimenting with various java tidbits on the freebsd platform... OTOH, i finally was able to edit the reported java version of the jdk14 port... really handy for the jdk to report a more sane version instead of the default (jdk version appended with the patch level number e.g. "-p3")... so now onward to more java adventures... tried to fire up resin and jboss and nice to see them both running smoothly... it still needs a whole lot of testing but having a running j2ee on freebsd can only be described by one word "ubercool!"... but still, jdk14's native freebsd port is a green threads only implementation...
