Scoooooooooter!

50cc, 50km/h - and lots of fun. Going to take me a little while to get used to it, but that's how it is with new toys.

All but given up...

EeeUser is still pining for the fjords as it were - it's passed on, ceased to be expired and gone to meets it's maker. Or so I presume; while Ant (the owner of the site) may still bring it back, I'm not going to hold my breath and check daily no more. It would be a damn shame if it was gone forever - since it's was a goldmine of information - but I don't have access to the database nor do I have Ant's contact information.

In more happy news I have both found a very nice shaving forum online, and gotten to ride my new scooter back and forth to work all week. Life is good.

It's definitely hardware...

... although not of the computer kind. Well, almost not: apparently the engine control unit - the brain, as it were - has a 32 bit CPU in it.

It's my latest piece of hardware - a Honda Zoomer, aka Ruckus in the US - so late that I haven't actually gotten it yet. The dealership will have it ready for me next Tuesday, and I'm very much excited about it. Off course, once I have it I'll tinker a bit; got to put on a mount for my GPS and see about getting a bag to go on the front load carrier for my Eee, phone and hypothetical tablet.
