One beans place in space.
Looks like Air Services Australia has updated their DAPs page with all the airport charts for Australian Airports. To reflect this, I’ve re-run my script to combine them all for us flight sim pilots who like to use them for procedural approaches and departures from airfields.
You can find them here.
Better late than never. I hope you all had a great Christmas and have a fun new year!
Christmas for me was a little different as I had a visit from one of my cousins from the UK on her way around Australia. There was much consumption of alcohol and a great time was had by all that night. Alas, with only the basic public holidays off this year, it’s a very busy time.
Work on the (until now) unmentioned project to trunk IP data between Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane is well underway and have already signed up our first 50Mbit customer. If you need data transport between Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane, drop me a line for a quote.
Be safe, and I’ll see you all in 2007!
EDIT: Oh, and my good mate Andrew Cameron that I’ve known ever since high school is getting married on the 30th. Cheers to him! 
I gave in. I purchased a Mac Pro. Clocking in with 2 x Dual Core 2.66Ghz CPUs, 2Gb RAM and the 512Mb ATI X1900 video card, it’s one hell of a machine. The first boot it ever did took around 18 seconds – very quick. Of course, the first thing I had to do to it was throw in a second 160Gb SATA HDD and throw Windows XP on there (for those all important games). I must say that I’m quite impressed with bootcamp (which allows you to boot Windows on the Intel Macs). The one thing that does annoy me is that it doesn’t give me the menu so I can pick which OS I want to boot to on startup – something I miss from other boot loaders such as grub.
I do have some hassle with the Logitech LLC drivers causing the mac to hang on shutdown, and even making the mouse buttons not work (however I can still move the pointer), however these have been reported to Logitech and I’m sure will be fixed soon.
All in all, a grunty as hell machine, and very nice to play games on
