		<title>Windows Cash Machine = Bad Idea</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is why I cringed a few years ago when I first heard our new ATM machines would be windows XP based.

There was some cheap ATM machine touch screen thing at Cinema 9, but it was blank cept for a gray line at the bottom. Touch. Taskbar. Start menu. Programs. Accessories. Paint.

		<title>Catching Cacti: Network Admin Guide</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I stumbled across this great beginner&#8217;s admin manual on the care and feeding of Cacti, a wonderful RRD-based graphing tool.
