VISIO for patch templates/misc

2000-09-06 by Paul Schreiber

Just ordered Micro$oft VISIO 2000 Technical Edition. Ken T. and I will work
on making
nice MOTM panels for use in patch storage. Supposedly, smart C++ programmers
can write
an interface like the Nord modular: you can program "droopy patch cords"
interconnecting
the "modules". VISO standard is all you need, and *supposedly* will be in
Y2001 MS Office
Professional (whoopeee). But I can export in many other formats.

I was going to use Adobe Illustrator 8, but that was a whip. (whip = slang
for "piece of crap").

Got DSL installed today. Pretty impressive! About 6X faster than dial-up.
Doesn't tie up
the phone line (I have 8 *pairs* of wires in my house wiring!)

Things have been very slow in the MOTM world over last 4 weeks. But,
shipping out over *30*
kits tomorrow, and another 40 next week. Hard to get excited when it's 113F
outside and 84F
inside with A/C full blast (Carnot cycles, anyone??!?). Still ordering parts
for the fall line-up.

gonna frag some kiddies tonite!

I have droopy VISIO patchcords already if you want them.

Be sure and a install personal firewall program, since you are 
connected full time now, and you don't want to be used in some punk's 
next denial of service attack on AOL.

I have a license of Sygate 3.1 for sale if anyone is interested. Version 4
is $50. I'll sell it for $20. I have a hardware firewall now.

Yeah, but do you droopy cords "wiggle?" That is a cool feature!

Tony...back to code, sorry.. :(

Hmm... a dedicated patching program should have two features---the ability
to take a "finger" and "push aside" cords to see what's behind them, and the
ability to kick the "cabinet' to watch the cords wiggle.

Maybe when the VR goggles and gloves become more standard.
