New PC

Saturday, July 29th, 2006

Finally bought myself a new PC, after years of putting it off.

Pentium D 930 (3.0GHz, Dual Core)
2 Gig DDR2 RAM
3×320GB Seagate Baracuda SATAII HDDs (7200RPM, 16MB Cache)
nVidia GeForce 7600GS with 512MB DDR RAM
Running AMD64/EM64T optimized version of Debian Sid with Linux Kernel 2.6.15-SMP
All packaged in a gorgeous Thermaltake Eureka case

Holy multi-tasking, Batman!

So, I worked out I was sitting here, playing an online game of OpenTTD, installing Windows 2003 Server plus Exchange, chatting to a couple of people on MSN, browsing the Web, listening to MP3s and installing a couple of apps under WINE. Phew.

Marcus, looking moderately wasted, lol. Actually looked far more sober until the camera came out. Must be magic.
