Wayne Small is an SBSer out of Sydney, and like me has a sick sense of humour, but it also appears that he has WAAAAAY to much time on his hands.
The new version of Small Business Server is on the way and Wayne has come up with some funnies, similar to the Apple v PC ads.
Enjoy.

For those who have been following the saga of the TracMe Beacon, the following taken from Panbo is a good laugh at how the product is perceived in the wider community.
TracMe revisited, today’s the day
Apr 1, 2008The good Doug Ritter (above) knows how to have a little boyish fun on April One, including some well deserved shots at the ineffectual FCC and the not-at-all funny TracMe “PLB” folks (who have at least taken “boating” off their applications list):
FCC SAYS “NO” TO ANOTHER PLB WANNNABE
The FCC has denied approval of the “Oceans-12 Personal Locator Beacon.” The manufacturer, Kung Pao Chicken Toy Factory of Tianjin, China, said they were surprised and disappointed by the decision. “We believe had best seller here,” said company spokesman, Chin A. Qrap.
The FCC spokesperson, Donmess Withus, pointed out that their so-called Personal Locator Beacon was little more than an unsold George Clooney action figure, repackaged with a small radio transmitter in the body, an antenna sticking out his of his head, and spray painted day-glo orange. Withus also noted the unusual location the activation switch, which he claims will lead to many false alerts. “We can’t send out Search and Rescue every time someone thinks it’s funny to touch George, um…. there.”
The manufacturer said they will appeal, claiming this decision is simply an overreaction to the recent problems with Chinese products and discriminatory. They point to the TracMe homing device and note that it is still being offered for sale as a PLB, despite FCC action, and claim
their device would be just as effective.
From the folks at Coriole in the McLaren Vale wine region, this 2003 Shiraz Cabernet is another great drop from the Coriole range of wines.
A predominantly Shiraz with a hint of Cabernet Sauvigon, the wine is a smooth clean taste with a mild spice which comes from the oak. Extremely fruity, lots of good red fruit, and what I though was plum, but actually reading in to it is more raspberry. Fruity with still a slight dry pallet, a drop that once again pays to lay it down for a few years to mature.
On the food front, I had a Penne dish with Mushrooms and Pesto with a nice sprinkle of fresh parmesan to top it all off.
A nice meal to end a good weekend.

Last night saw Kate and I trek down to Bennetts Lane, a funky little Jazz club in the heart of Melbourne to see a favourite performer of mine, Miss Julie O’Hara and her quintet.
Julie never disappoints with her smooth style of taking the music of some great performers of latter years and putting here own sultry lyrics to them.
The Julie O’Hara Quintet (Carlo Barbaro (tenor sax), Eamon McNelis (trumpet), Leigh Barker (double bass), Ben Winkelman (piano), Edward York (drums).
With the Melbourne Jazz Festival only two weeks away, make sure you check out the website and get down to some of the free shows happening at Federation Square.

Well seeing as I was in the area to see a client this afternoon, I couldn’t turn down an opportunity to grab a coffee at a cafe choicely named The Beanery Cafe.
Now with a name like that, and one door up being their Coffee Machine and Bean store, you would expect an EXCEPTIONAL cup of coffee, well, aahhhh no, it was probably as good a cup of coffee that you would get from a McCafe. I was utterly disappointed.
Not only with the coffee, but the lack of attention to detail - I ordered a double shot soy latte and got a double shot skinny latte. The coffee was poorly cupped, the bean was bitter and the milk was nearly scorched to the point of being a flat watery mess.
So, all in all, not a great cup of coffee.
In their defense, I must say that the location is sensational, right in the heart of Brighton in Church Street, the atmosphere down there on a absolute perfect day like to day was just great, and the eye candy made up for the woful coffee.
The Beanery Cafe - 1 out of 5 beans.
Well, after a lazy weekend at home cleaning, and catching up around the house, It really hit me today, how lonely I’ve been lately.
I’ve been keeping myself rather busy to keep my mind off things, but I think it has all finally caught up with me.
Got out of the house this afternoon and took a bit of a trek down to Healesville to go and say g’day to Sean at Barrique and pick up a few new drops for the rack. (hence the title off this blog, and the play on words… get it, whine, wine…. ahhh the penny’s dropped!) and seeing that I’m getting a nice collection going on the rack now, I though it only be appropriate to add a new category to the blog titled, “Frogs, Snails & Grapes” or in Layman’s terms, Food & Wine.
I keep getting people asking me what’s a good drop, where is a good restaurant, what was that wine that we had the other night with dinner, so now, I’ll actually try and make an effort to write a few paragraphs about some Food & Wine.
So watch this space, stay tuned and I hope you enjoy the new series in my blogging world. The blog has certainly taken some interesting turns over the years, personal blogging, tech blogging, and now, food and wine blogging. Hopefully it proves to be some what interesting.
So after all that, It’s time to move on, it’s time to start a new chapter and turn the page. Clear the air, clear the mind, and start fresh for the next chapter of the Life of Greg.
I’ve also noticed that while I’ve been down, I haven’t been blogging much, so hopefully, that will change too, but I’m not making any promises on that one! (anyway, who actually reads this crap anyway!)
Anyhoo, there’s my whine for the day.
