Long time no see! I’ve been busy, away, busy again, working etc. etc. Now however, I’m back again and have some time to kill.

First of all, I managed to hand in my project report January 15th. It felt good and I’m pretty happy with the outcome. Just a few hours later, I left for Austria to snowboard.

The week in Austria was really exciting, and the 13 of us going had a great time. No injuries! The Gastein valley was great, with plenty of resorts to visit. If I were to complain, I would have loved 30-50 more centimeters of snow. We had, nonetheless, a great week with loads and loads of snowboarding, on- and offpist!

15 minutes walking for 6 great turns in Sportgastein. Worth it!

When I got home, I started to work on my master thesis, but spending night time finishing my home theater PC (HTPC) project “Radionette Menuett”. It’s practically ready, more in a later post.

One issue with the HTPC was that our old TV doesn’t work with any output from the PC. I therefore decided to invest in a new TV. After a quick lookaround I ended up with a 37″ Samsung LCD-TV (LE37B535). It’ll be exciting to see how the HD world looks and feels.

PS. Andreas, one of my flatmates won a Playstation 3 the other day, the timing couldn’t be better!
