      @scottalanmiller How big of a venture do you think this is gonna turn in to that you need to stay in the US?

      Well dude, he's got his own format of SD card, those things are everywhere! 😉

      Do you use Micro-SD? Hell no, it's bigger than macro SD... it's SAM-SD!

            Now setting up the wife's desk phone, too. She has less of an office for now, but still a pretty serious setup.

              New ad-hoc project: Learn how to create scheduled tasks in Powershell.

              1. Write and debug your script. Make sure there is nothing wrong with it.
              2. Store it in a place that it is easy for you to get to, such as C:\scripts\powershell.ps1
              3. Go to Task Scheduler and schedule your task
              4. Go to a folder, such as Task Scheduler Library -> Microsoft -> Windows.
              5. Right-click and select "Create New Task".
              6. Go to the "Actions" tab and select "New..."
              7. "Program/script:" = "powershell.exe"
              8. "Add arguments (optional):" = the path to your script.
              9. OK
              10. Setup your triggers -> OK.
              11. Profit!

                  Kids are using the office phones to call grandpa now. They think that this is very cool.

                    Heh. This is in response to me discovering that the various tasks in question exist solely within the Task Scheduler GUI. So if the server blew up, they're gone (despite a script exists to configure a new server, except the tasks). My goal is to the tasks to the build script.

                                  How about have the script available to you on the network somewhere, run invoke-command -ComputerName <TargetServer> -ScriptBlock <script>?

                                        Next task, getting my new desktop built and ready to go. I have no idea what hardware it even has. Oh, and have to set up my office phone.

                                        You have a office phone . . . and a "proper" office?

                                        I have a full office, fully dedicated one. And a proper Yealink office phone.

                                        Which phone? Hope it is not one of the old T3X series. I hated those things.. Always so slow to respond to initial button press.

                                        And get yourself a Plantronics CS540 or similar DECT headset. I cannot live without mine.
