Hak5 Theme

Everyone must have this in their life!

Hak.5 Theme<- Right click and “Save As” or just click to open.

This file was taken from http://www.tenhauser.com/. This site belongs to the creator of the theme music for Hak.5 / TWiT / Net at night and loads of other cool podcasts and vidcasts.

Hmmmm…..

Ok…! so my web server went kaput last night…lost the mysql database and also all my settings for wordpress. I have now moved the the blog on to a better (although still not very powerfull) machine.

Origionaly…(and faultlessly) i was using a Pentium 3 866Mhz machine with around 700MB ram. The day after i install xampp and wordpress on it, it gave me the v symbol and keeled over.

Now im using an old ish DELL machine. Which has 1.4Ghz Celeron processor and 512MB ram. As i only installed xampp and wordpress yesterday im not sure if it will hold up but its worth a try!

And as im new to mysql php and apache it maybe a while before i get a “finished” blog template setup. So bare with me! ultimate noob learning here lol!!!
