How fun is school.
Yeah, it’s not. Especially when you’re starting a new job, too.
The fun part is, I got a dark red 2004 Nissan Maxima. Which I am currently enjoying a great deal.
None of which has to do with Linux. But it’s my blog and I get the liberty of going off topic. At least I’m posting.
So I thought I’d take on the challenge of doing a triple-boot setup on my laptop. Yawn, right? Everyone’s done that.
Except not everyone has done it with Windows Vista, MacOS X Leopard, and OpenSUSE 11.0 all on the same non-Mac machine. A machine much like my Dell Inspiron E1705.
I took said challenge, and it only took about 23 tries before I got it.
Here are some pictures of the machine booting, logging into, and the desktop of each OS:

Most often, I will be hanging out in the OpenSUSE 11.0 installation. For that annoying software that only runs in Windows, I am forced, completely against my will, to have it on the machine, as well. And, I have recently become interested in the iPhone SDK, which of course only runs in MacOS 10.5.2 (Leopard) or newer. Hence, the need for all three OSes. And, I have just never seen it done, so I thought I’d jump in and do it. Instructions mostly came from here.
Fascinating.
So, back to the off-topic. I am selling a white 2004 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor (click for larger image):
For all the information you could ever want about the car, including lots of pictures, take a look at this page.
