Weekend, Briefly I got nothing really deep to say about this weekend.  I just had a really nice enjoyable weekend--good times, good food, good conversation, and good company.  7:38:22 PM    comment []  trackback []

MOOOOOOVE!!! I had to play "Nick Burns" for my friends this weekend, helping them pick out a new computer. I tend to be a fan of the AMD processors, mainly because of their cost and performance. After visiting Best Buy, we decided on the HP Pavilion A810N. I like the specifications on this machine: - CD-ROM - DVD RW drive (supporting both formats) - 512MB DDR RAM - Athlon64 Proc - 160GB Hard Drive - Integrated SiS Graphics - 9 in 1 Media Reader This machine is not for the power gamer, but it is great for the user occasionally working from home, emailing, web-browsing, and managing multimedia. My free time over the next few days will be consumed with setting this machine up. No big deal, but since I wound up not going into the office today, I will be spending some quality time with it tomorrow night. 7:37:13 PM    comment []  trackback []

Guess Who's Back? I have truly become geeky and bandwidth-dependent.  The last five days has shown this.  Since I use Radio Userland as my blogging tool, I was unable to update my blog since my cable died around 2:00 PM last Thursday.  With the return of my cable, though, I am back to blogging.  I am indeed quite annoyed that it took this long to get my service back up.  I will be having a nice chat with the folks in Comcast's billing department for some type of pro-rated discount on all of my services.  I am happy for the return of bandwidth to my hovel.  It was so bad the last couple of days that I was sitting in the local coffee house reading email and working as much as I could remotely.  Man, I am such a big friggin' geek.  2:23:17 PM    comment []  trackback []
