We have a great assortment of Champs, Swisschamps, and Wengers but I'm throwing this out to see if anyone wants to bring an XAVT out to play?

Mactire - Day 17

Sadly no action shots today. The SC did some minor tasks, like opening a bag of carrots for carrotsoup.
And I made another butter cake, this time with ginger. All uses were noted on the tally list of course.

I wanted to take apart my old USB drive because I've read that it could be a faulty connection. But I'll save that for tomorrow.

...Is also carry an usb, but if I have to be honest, everything goes in the cloud these days.
Where do you use it for nowadays?...

I have mine loaded with portable apps. We are not allowed to install our own software at work and this is my little workaround... I had a Corsair Stealth drive which was supposed to be very durable. But they sadly are not and it didn't take much more for me to loose all my data. So now I have a new one (and made a backup of course).
This drive is my Digital Swiss Army Knive  :D I can burn CD/DVDs, read medical files (DICOM), convert anything into anything, use my own browser and sometimes use a Photoshop like program.


... Fitted a keysafe for my elderly neighbours...
Show content
Owww, a KeySafe...  :ahhh You know they should be called a KeyUNsafe. I know Serena already commented on this.
But I have one of those open in three to four minutes. And I'm not a very skilled lockpicker. I know sometimes these boxes are required by regulations, but it's better to stay clear of them if you can.

Sorry for the side-bar here. But yes, they do load on the USB drive and run completely from the USB drive.
They do not use the hard drive of the computer or leave any records on the drive. I'm not concerned about not leaving a trace to be covert, just not to break the system. So this works perfectly. I use Portableapps.com. I'm not sure if there is something similar for Mac.
