- Kohan's TheAlph.com bio
- Nearly 10 years ago, my old friend Simon set up one of the internet's most popular X-Files websites, TheAlph.com. I was lucky enough to have a small role on the site, as part of its episode audio reviews. Sadly the site is no longer online, but I've been able to locate a copy of my bio from that site, and I have archived it here.
- Solving HP Photosmart C7180 Printer Driver Problems
- How I solved problems I had installing the Windows drivers for my new HP Photosmart C7180 printer... another reason why Macs are clearly better than PCs.
- Beta Test Postmortem
- Throughout August I had a group of 25 people test my latest program and provide feedback. On the surface it was a successful test... but behind the scenes there were many problems to contend with. An insight into a month with namesuppressed, and a cautionary tale to indies and micro-ISVs planning to run their own beta tests.
Random News
- It's official - I've switched to the Mac. I didn't like Windows Vista, and Windows has become too frustrating. I enjoy using my computer a lot more since I switched to the Mac. In fact, the Mac found my new printer straight away, while I've spent several hours trying to get it to work with Windows....
- I've been getting back into music again, slowly. I've cleared a room of the house to act as my music studio, and placed some orders for some new recording gear which should hopefully arrive soon.
Syne's Current Projects
- Vista updates
- All the software I've written is due for updates, especially my Photoshop plugins. Now that Windows Vista is out, it's time to improve their compatibility with Windows Vista. They work, but they could be better...
