New Momentus XT 500GB hard drive

I have got a new Momentus XT hard drive in my laptop. 2.5" of hybrid joy. 


The drive has 4GB of SSD memory and 500GB of storage space. Windows 7Ultimate found it with no problems and it is a lot faster to do things from the drive than past 5400 rpm drives. There is a noticeable difference with the speed from the 7200rpm drives also.


I am happy with the new drive

MySQL and PHP and iphone devlopment

I need to make a decision... tech support is becoming a drag. Everyone wants everything now or in 10 mins and complains.


I either have my own support company, I can make my own decisions with my own company or I can become an iphone developer, however for my part time college course I'm needing to do MySQL and PHP development. These are all sought after traits however and I think they'd be good in my own company as I could use the skills I teach myself to get bigger in the IT world...


I just hate making money for other people and getting paid a pittance for the "pleasure".

I've seen rumours that the iphone 5 is due out in June! It'll be interesting to see if it is and what new features it'll have.


I was thinking about buying the iphone 4. 


Mobile App development would be superb area to get into.
