WHAT????? MiCk got retrenched?????!!!!!
Nah, actually my company went under a while back, just been doing odd projects (the reason I can spend more time on codeguru these past weeks) just kinda took a long vacation. Not much in the kernel development going on around here. Don't get me wrong, I've talked to plenty of recuriters, my personal recruiter that I used for years closed up shop 2 years ago, and looked at a couple of jobs, but they are unchallenging and boring, I can't work for a company where I'm not eager to go to work each day. That and I get the usual _a_s_sHats calling asking, hey I've got a job for you in california, and I'm like hey, no you don't...

There is a dark horse in the running though, an intrustion detection company that is like right down the road from where I use to work, problem is they are a UN*X shop, and it's been 8 years since I coded under UN*X. Probably talk to them monday.

But on the bright side, I got to take my development machines home, so I've got 10K+ in hardward at home, and the software licences (even though I can't transfer them) ranks somewhere up in there in thousands....hmm rational was 10 grand alone as I recall..but that was an enterpise wide license I believe.
