The Great Music Migration
Tuesday, April 26th, 2005
I decided to move all of the music from Dante, my old mac, over to the newer PC that I have dedicated to music today. This normally wouldn’t be to problematic but Dante is what I kindly refer to a “frankenmac.” She’s an assembly of computer parts that shouldn’t be compatible and a hacked up operating system. Because of this most of her permissions are permanently messed up and it makes moving files back and forth a pain in the… well you know. So I tried the sensible and easy thing and connected to the PC from the Mac and tried to transfer them. This didn’t work well, though, and I had to resort to desperate measures. I set up and FTP server on my PC (thanks Chris) and began FTPing everything over. So far I haven’t run into too many issues but I doubt this will be done transferring until tomorrow afternoon. Thank goodness the laptop is my main computer.
The picture I posted is what my desktop looks like currently. A real mess if I do say so myself. Looks like I’ll be cleaning up my desk tomorrow or the next day at some point!

So after my 1pm meeting I decided to spend the rest of the my work day sitting on the back porch working on designs. Nice blue skies above me and birds singing in the background. On a side note we really need to clean the yard and driveway up. It’s more than slightly messy from the winter.
