On the Move

It’s been awhile since we’ve posted, though we’re getting ready to move again this week. We’re headed to Gent where we’ll be until we leave Belgium in late 2008. I’m sure Judi will post all about it after the dust cloud has cleared.

I’ve been traveling quite a bit for work. Last week I was in Antwerp for a seminar in optics, and had a meeting in Deinze. The week before that I spent a lot of time in Zulte and Deinze at company facilities at a foundation technology conference and training for my business division. Tomorrow I’ll be working in the Netherlands all day at the research campus of one of our partners, and next week (immediately after the move) I’ll be working up near Eindhoven for the entire week. At least I get a rental car again for that! Hopefully things will then calm down a bit.

In other news, Judi’s brand new notebook computer has just about bit the dust. At less than three months old it started having problems, and barely runs. I think it is a memory or MOBO problem, but tech support for Cyberpower PC is worthless. After three phone calls and three tech support tickets we’ve gotten no response whatsoever. We finally just took it to a local place to at least determine what the problem is. Oh well, we’ll have to suffer with only one computer? Goodness, what we have become!

I feel so bad about the computer. Is it worth mailing it back to the company? or mail it to us and we can try to handle it from here? or we can bring it back with us when we visit.
