I upgraded my PC today. Until today, I’ve been working on a Windows XP machine running PIII 866 MHz processor along with 128 MB RAM. Needless to say the performance of the machine was abit like watching Mr T sing: shit.
I added two 128 MB SDRAM chips, taking the grand total to 385 MB RAM - more than sufficent for my computing needs at the moment. I also added a DVD writer - the Sony DRU 810 A; a luxury perhaps, but I have the feeling that it might payback big time in the future.
Gideon Haigh at Cricinfo writes on what constitutes a great test. Great article again from a man who I believe will be one of the finest cricket writers in time to come. An extract of the article:

The beaten edge, the unplayable ball, the impossible chance that is taken, the straightforward chance that is fluffed, the umpire’s inadvertent error: on individuals, cricket inflicts the most exquisite suffering. But, for all the blah about glorious uncertainty, Test cricket is utterly, massively, viciously fair.
