Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.
got the kit from http://www.pvelectronics.co.uk and I'm quite satisfied that the clock is up and running after a few hours of soldering the stuff together I haven't finished the case yet that's why the PCB is exposed.

Oh wow, that looks great ... ... does it change the colours as well? ... ...
yep - you can either program fixed colours for every hour of the day or select some kind of randomized colour change mode in different speeds - unfortunately there's no tiny smoke machine installed

Get emacs. It's free.
notepad++ is free as well - but I might check it out. I don't really do uber-fancy stuff with these editors - just some basic webstuff editing.
Yep, notepad++ is a good one, it's true. If all you're doing is a bit of editing emacs is probably using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, as the saying goes.
The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.

2TB Seagate external hard drive set up. Now I just need to get into the habit of backing stuff up.
I bought one of these for a friend who uses Windows Vista and it took several restarts to set up. Bought one for myself, plugged it into my Linux (Kubuntu) box and it worked immediately - no restart necessary, no configuration, just automatically detected & working. We seem to have reached an age where Linux does plug-and-play better than Windows.
Linux and MacOSX can plug&pray USB mass storage devices just fine for at least 10 years. The problems start when you want to exchange data between those, and have to resort to a DOS filesystem....
