Apple computer. Airport Express.

These are on my mind as my daily job involves working with Windows XP. And because it's Microsoft, it's irritating. Adding a printer, for example, is kind of a pain. And we've been printing far longer than we've been using a computer, so you'd think that some day we'd make it less annoying than it is.

I out-clevered myself, too. I restricted the normal classroom user so they cannot add, rename, or delete printers. So what do I want to do now? Delete one printer and add another one. So I can either mess with policy files (itself another reason to hate Windows with the fury of a thousand suns) to remove this restriction, or I can update the Ghost image I'm using and re-image all the machines.

The latter might be be faster, assuming I don't have to mess with the Ghost image all that much. I think it's vulnerable to one of the more recent worms, so patching that might be fun.

I have this wish that the next round of replacements will be iBooks. It would make me a lot happier.
