Network problems causing downtime on my Server *fixed*

October 10th, 2009 No comments

It looks like the problem was actually with a specific VLAN behind one of our core routers and wasn’t actually the switch itself.

One of our senior Network Administrators trying to  fix the problem and all services should be restored very soon.

Operating System Interface Design Between 1981-2009

April 24th, 2009 No comments

This is a old post on webdesignerdepot.com , but it’s always nice to read.

from WebDesignerDepot:

A Graphical User Interface (GUI for short) allows users to interact with the computer hardware in a user friendly way.

Over the years a range of GUI’s have been developed for different operating systems such as OS/2, Macintosh, Windowsamiga, Linux, Symbian OS, and more.

We’ll be taking a look at the evolution of the interface designs of the major operating systems since the 80’s.

I should mention that this article showcases only the significant advances in GUI design (not operating system advances) and also not all of the graphical user interfaces and operating systems existing today.
