Tera-bite me!
Last Saturday morning Kerri and i got up at some crazy hour to head out to Homebush for Cheryl's Australian Championship 20km Walk race. We did manage to get there early enough to see the second half of the race. :-) She didn't seem to go any faster despite my cheering. I'll have to put in a bit more effort next time. Unfortunately, we lost track of time after the race and ended up with a parking fine. See, we should never have got out of bed so early!
The VirtualWebby Digital Video Production House has finally got off the ground, with the purchase of two 600GB LaCie Big Disk Extreme's (External HDD with Triple Interface). One drive will be soley devoted to being a HDV-editing scratch-pad, and the other will operate as our mass storage device. Each drive is actually 2 300's running in Raid-0 with Firewire 800 connectivity, so it's only my 2GHz single-core CPU that's letting the team down. I don't know how i'm going to distribute any of the footage i produce. It'll either be highly-compressed Windows Media 9 Series video, or i'll have to wait until HD-DVD (or Blu-Ray) comes about. In the mean time i'll be exporting back to mini-DV tape to play back via the HDV camcorder on our tele.
Things have been very hectic at work - hopefully it will settle down now and allow me more time for other activities. I somehow managed to be elected captain for Alcatel's Corporate Games soccer team. I don't even remember being nominated! Outside of the corporate games i haven't played competitive soccer since i was 10. Though, how hard can it be to captain a soccer team? Just kick the ball Mario! :P
