And we're off and running.....
Just finished checking the course syllabus and first week's assignments for my object-oriented programming course.
This week, I need to read chapters 1 and 2 from the book that hasn't arrived yet (it shipped today), and do some homework assignments based on those readings. The assignments are due midnight Monday, which I'll assume is one minute before 00:01 on Monday morning and not one minute after 23:59 on Monday evening. That means that Sunday night may become my crunch night. But I have all week to finish the readings, and I don't want to fall into the "wait until the 11th hour" trap.
Once I get the notice about access to ELMS, which should include my username and password, I should be able to get my copy of Visio 2003 from the CIS lab. I can only borrow one title at a time, but I would like to see what else I can get. Office 2003 would be nice to have. I've been making do with Office 2007 on the desktop, and I have OpenOffice 2.4 on the laptop.

But seriously, the ritual at Summerset awakened my Warrior aspect and I'm more motivated to get things done now.
Rather than Visio
KDE is now available for Windows and you can download the installer here. I mention it because one of the KDE programs is a Visio replacement. I installed the whole works, and I've been having fun with it (I like Mahjongg!)

Re: Rather than Visio
I just checked, it isn't Visio compatible, but you should try it anyway, some neat stuff, and it is Free software.
Dia appears to be Visio compatible (at least it has an Export to Visio function), you can get it here. Nice little program.
I\m surprised that Open Office Beta 3 doesn't have a Visio replacement yet.
