So, I have been busy getting settled in my new job. I am finally starting to get work done instead of just getting acclimated and set up. I set up my own Red Hat server for Subversion and PHP development. I have also figured out how to parse out form data from PDFs and will be working on integrating that into our web site. I am also learning Java and JSP to be able to work with our existing web system. I have just finished connecting PHP with our MS-SQL server so I can start getting some real work done. I am lobbying my boss for a Mac to work with.
Speaking of getting a Mac, I used my Student Developer Discount I had left to buy a MacBook Pro. I'm typing on it right now and installing the updates. I ordered a custom machine from the online store on Wednesday afternoon, and it showed up this morning. I'm glad I sprung the extra $15 to get it shipped 2-Day from China. Now I get to play around with it over the weekend.
I hope everyone's spring breaks are going well.
