As many of you know, the Apple iPad is going to be released on April 3rd (my birthday) and I’m incredibly 
excited about it. The thing is incredibly thin, sexy, and just looks really nice. If the iPad meets the bar set by Apple, this is definitely going to be the best device they’ve created. Though things weren’t exactly all great for me and the iPad, I initially hated it! So what made me change my mind from hating the iPad to being really excited about it? Plenty of things to be honest. But first I’d like to go over the details as to why I hated the iPad from the get go.

I currently have a Dell Mini 9 netbook which has an Intel Atom N270 processor running at 1.6Ghz on a 533Mhz FSB. 
Since the “netbook” is supposed to be a mini laptop, you’d expect the processor to handle what you’re trying to do, right? Not exactly. We live in an age of Flash video, 720p/1080p everything, really complex websites and everything being in the “cloud”.

Well, it seems that moving to WordPress 2.9 requires a MySQL database that’s 4.1 or higher, and my host, 1and1 only supports 4.0 for their 4.x databases. So how can you go to 4.x to 5.x? Simple, backup your database, create a new one (5.x) and re-import your old data. Sounds easy right? Not at all. I backed up my data, both with PHPmyadmin, and WordPress backup, but it seems that PHPmyadmin wouldn’t take the backed up database into the new database. So now I get to start over! Awesome. I’ll see if I can’t copy and paste some of my better posts so I’m not missing that. Just a word of advice, don’t use 1and1 as your web host.
