Dec. 20th, 2001 11:44 pmI'm running on my new computer now. I posted the specs of it a little while back, and now i'm all set up. I've got a 17" monitor (but I want a bigger one!) as well as an optical mouse (one of my christmas gifts from Marissa).
In my usual tradition of naming computers on my internal LAN, this computer has been christened as newton. The others are tesla (my old system), fermi (the server), henon (my brother's crap box, einstein (my father's system) & heiselberg (my little crappy pentium 90 laptop).
My only qualms about the system so far are the random sporadic total hardware lockups. It just freezes dead, and I need to cycle power to fix it. And the soundcard doesn't put out enough volume! I need bigger speakers! I think I will go and borrow my set of work speakers from TechBC for the holidays. Maybe I can find two sets, then I can have quad surrond sound 8-).
