Action Pants

So every since I have had a laptop I have always had an issue with it waking up randomly from standby. I would put it to sleep, place it in my bag and go somewhere with it, and when I pulled it out it was hot because it had been running for some reason. I ended up just shutting it down most of the time because I knew that it wouldn't stay in standby mode. Just recently, I decided to finally find a fix for the problem. After doing a little searching on the web I found this site which resembled my problem. I followed the link to the patch on Microsoft's site, installed it, and now I can put my computer to sleep without worrying about it turning itself on!

So I am working on a project that involves making a Sharepoint WebPart. I have the functionality down but it looks like crap. Now I could bug someone to help me make it look pretty, but I think I am going to bite the bullet and figure out this whole CSS thing. I keep doing projects that work, but look horrible and it's got to stop. On a side note Bamboo Solutions makes really good stuff from what i can tell. I had to find a way to get data from a SQL Database into sharepoint and they have from what can tell the only solution to do this. Access 2007 has a feature built into but I found it too be very memory intensive with large sets of data. I don't normally push a product unless I like it, so yea if you need to get data into sharepoint, they would be the way to go.
