New server

Over the weekend our IT support was busy installing the new server and UPS. We go from the endless struggle of trying to manage with a 60GB hard drive on the server (smaller than my laptop, incidentally) to having space measured in TB (that's terabytes my friend!).

The side effect of this was that none of the 3rd party software chose to work until it was re-licensed (which in some cases took hours) and Office went overnight from 2003 to 2010. OK for me as I've got 2007 at home - but horrid for everyone else!

Got very little accomplished today as the computers were revolting.
