i found this great quote in the comment section of this entry at tech:knowledge:

people are literally afraid of their computers. they think they will break. this is obviously because they never back anything up. if they actually did they would be fearless. or they are really just afraid of the darn things.

people always ask how i know so much ( i have to look after about a dozen systems) and I just tell them I’m not afraid of my computer.

this last sentence is exactly how i feel… 😉

after a long night (finally got to bed at 4:30), i’m now sitting at the food & beverage conference and blogging these lines via the wifi network of the marriott hotel.

i’m sitting at the vienna international airport and have 3 hours to kill. my flight to moscow is delayed and instead of arriving at 0:45 in the morning, i’m now schedule to land at 3am. what a nightmare!

but the good thing is: VIE has free access to WiFi and so i can read emails, blogs and catch up on all the open webpages i’ve been keeping in safari.
