I shipped my Xbox 360 off for repair yesterday. I really hope I get it back before Halo 3′s launch, but I have doubts. It’s kind of weird how your console can be sitting in your living room one day then making its way to Texas another. Microsoft better compensate me for this.

On a happier note, I got accepted in to a Horde guild on Uther, called SWotH (yeah, I’m playing that shit again). They seem like a bunch of mature individuals that just want to have fun. Although it’s a raiding guild, they don’t require members to do so, understanding that RL comes before games.

It’s been a shitty month of boredom. With my 360 down and a drought of PC games, I’m forced to play WoW a little too much.

Adobe Photoshop CS3 uses Apple’s Bonjour Technology (which is crap) that makes it easy to connect to Version Cue servers. But I don’t want it on my system, so here’s how to uninstall it:

  1. Start > Run
  2. “C:\Program Files\Bonjour\mDNSResponder.exe” -remove
  3. Rename mdnsnsp.dll to mdnsnsp.old
  4. Reboot
  5. Delete Bonjour folder
