		<description><![CDATA[Contrary to what some people would have everyone believe, Microsoft don&#8217;t screw up very often.  However, when they do screw up, they seem to screw up with style. This Christmas I was off work from 18th Dec to 28th Dec inclusive &#8211; quite a long time and also a bargain, at only 5 days of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As soon as RAID controllers started being built into affordable motherboards, I decided using RAID for my home PC was a good idea.  For the last 6-7 years, I have used RAID on every PC I have built. There are several RAID configurations.  RAID 0 (striping) utilises two or more identical hard drives, and splits [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A few weeks ago I started seeing software failures on the Linux server.  Although they were infrequent they were frustrating, to say the least, and would sometimes require me to find a workaround through configuration. There were no serious problems, but these failures started becoming regular.  I realised it was because I was running Fedora [...]]]></description>

Or &#8220;bad luck comes accompanied by no other instances of bad luck whatsoever&#8221;? Anyway, following the tragic and catastrophic failure of my UPS, and the terminal affliction suffered by my [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[About a week ago, I noticed that the display on the UPS protecting the computers in the office indicated it was charging. Strange, I thought, seeing as I hadn&#8217;t noticed a power cut. The UPS emits a rather loud second-long beep every four seconds during any power loss, and I was surprised I hadn&#8217;t noticed [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My new PC has been giving me a hard time recently. And it&#8217;s my own fault. When I built it, I decided it should have a 64-bit processor. Of course, that&#8217;s 32 bits more than anyone actually needs at the moment, but it&#8217;s the way forward. Allegedly. I also decided I should try out Windows [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve recently emerged from the other side of building a new PC, an act which proved to be rather more painful than could have been reasonably expected. I&#8217;m experienced enough to know what I&#8217;m doing&#8211;I built my first PC when a 30 MB hard drive was more than adequate for a home computer&#8211;but this time [...]]]></description>
