OrbWars
By soon of course, I actually mean I'm not sure when exactly, but that it will be in the near future - probably a month or two.
The old website is back, nothing much on there at the moment, just a teaser image, but I'll put updates on there as I get things finalised!

Plus its not even remotely tempting to click on them, so what the author aimed to get out of it I just don't know!
Anyway, three cheers for the WordPress spam detector! :D
Finally a use for Netscape!
All of these were easily copied across using a cross over cable, no problems there - but shock horror, my emails were another story.
Microsoft Outlook Express stores emails in a non-standard format which can't be read by Apple Mail - disaster!
It was then that I remembered once installing Netscape to test compatibility of my web site. Netscape had very nicely offered to import the Internet and email settings from Internet Explorer and Outlook Express.
Checking up on this I found that when it does this it stores the resulting emails in a standard .mbox format - which can then be read by any sensible email client. Wohoo!
So the basic steps to import your emails from Outlook Express on Windows to Apple Mail on the Mac:
- Install Netscape on the Windows box.
- Allow it to import from your Outlook Express.
- Copy the newly created .mbox files to your Mac.
- Show Apple Mail where it can find them when it asks.
That’s it – yay!
Ooo and make sure you remember to uninstall Netscape afterwards or your PC might become contaminated or something hehehe.
A Post!

Read that in a Mario voice, it works better :S
Anyway, Oliver gave me a section on here, which is cool. I'm just admiring the very cool software it is powered by, all these smooth curves and clean lines - very nice!
OrbWars is great by the way. And if Oliver will continue writing bits of it it will become the best! mwuhahahaha!
