Athlon 64 X2 - One Week Later

It´s been About a week now since my previous P4 2.6Ghz system bit the dust (thanks to a pathetic MSI video card) and I upgraded the whole thing to a new Athlon 64 X2 dual core system. It a word: Awesome. It´s blazing Fast and I truly am seeing a huge difference when it comes to multi tasking - which is something I find myself doing quite a bit of (I have a habit of crashing computers as I try to do to much at once)

So in short, I would truly recommend the configuration.

In other news I started simultaneous courses for the Coast Guard Auxiliary. I´m teaching both the Crew Level and the Advanced Crew Level courses to all comers in my Unit. The plan is a weekly meeting where the first hour is Crew and the second is Advanced Crew. We started last week with basic Navigation and it went "swimmingly" (to use a bad pun)
I´m filming all the lectures and hopefully will get around to making them  suitable for download here on the mate eventually.

Finally in About 2 weeks time Kellei and I will travel to Victoria to take part in a new Coxswain Training Standard Development Workshop with the CCGA for the region. I have been asked to lead the session concerning the training delivery plan for the next 5 years. It´s quite a step for me and I´m a bit overwhelmed as some of the other members that will be there easily have 10 years of experience on me... seemingly I´m a ´big picture guy´ according to the team lead - so they are thowing this one to me... should be interesting... I´ll keep you posted.
