I actually kind of enjoyed working on PA4.  I'm not the biggest fan of C# but I managed to work my way through it.

It didn't seem to give me any problems except working on getting output looking decent.  I've never really used much for console output in C# so it was tough to format it.  Overall I enjoyed working on the assignment and i found it pretty easy actually.

Assignment 1

Assignment one has seemed fine so far. It's been a little frustrating getting everything going but not too bad. I think most of that is due to my main laptop not working at the moment and not being sure when I'll get it back.

Got Perforce set up and am in the process of setting up Visual Studio which is a huge pain. It has taken hours to install Service Pack one so that I could install XNA and I am really running into the same problems I always run into with Visual Studio (too complex and too many dependencies to be productive). Haven't been able to get to the programming yet because I've been installing all the Visual Studio stuff so far (gcc and VIM never take this long).

All in all I guess everything is going fine though.
