I wrote last year about the 3M Privacy Filters; I’ve not worked with my laptop and confidential data on a flight in over three years.
I recently purchased the filters for my team; I must say I am impressed. They are unobtrusive – and really work.

Somehow my PGP passphrase got corrupted; there’s no way back.
PGP support tried – but my brick of a laptop needs a rebuild.
I was disappointed at how seemingly fragile the passphrase piece is; the support guy at PGP said he’d never seen it before.
Hmm.
Back to a new build; if it happens again I’ll be somewhat upset..

Somehow the SATA drive in my new Thinkpad is screwy. The surface test is good; but PGP Whole Disk Encryption doesn’t like it. It doesn’t recognise my passphrases.
I’m back up and kinda running on my ‘old’ ATA drive in my new laptop; it’s faster but the drive is slow and I’ve lost a little data.
I’m going to get a USB-SATA enclosure and see if I can restore the drive.

We’re growing!
There are a few open opportunities within the ZENworks Business Unit for Product Managers.
Ideally we are looking for people who can ‘hit the ground running’.
If you need any additional information – or if you want to apply – get in touch via the Novell email address.
[Edit – the role would probably be based at one of our ZENworks Development Centres – namely Provo, UT, Boston, MA or Bangalore, India]

My usual list of housekeeping:
- install OpenOffice 2.2
- fix the map updates for the Nuvi sat-nav
- change the SSID and secure the wireless on the BT Homehub
- fix the laptop and wireless card
- provide recommendations for wireless and wired access for the work on the house
All in a days work.
