First Post!

That certainly wasn't a spectacular game last night. So sloppy. But at least it was close for most of the game, which sure as hell is a lot better than it being over at half-time. I just see that one of my cat has left me a present on the carpet. How nice. Movie: All systems automated and ready. A chimpanzee and two trainees could run her.



























  • I received a strange call from Dell today... a very strange call.

    You see, I love their SC400 and now their SC420 servers. Why? Because they made pretty darn good desktop machines! You don't have to order them with an OS (so you can get them with educational discounts if the customer is a student or through newegg for much cheaper), and the price is just crazy good for a basic PC. I have ordered 4 in the last month (or so).

    So, the guy tells me that before dell ships out any servers they like to give their customers a call. I said that was funny because Ive never received a call from them. He asks if I realized I ordered it SANS Operating System and I told him that Dell's OS prices are crazy expensive and I would be dumb to order the software through them. He asked if I realized they only support server software on these servers and I asked him if he realized that Dell doesn't really support anything anyways so what does it matter? Why did I give him such a hard time? Because that call delayed the shipment of the PC through the weekend. All they had to do is process my order like normally and the poor guy in Austin wouldn't have had to been made to look like a fool.

    Funny thing is, ra1n and biskits, he is your neighbor. He lives in San Paloma he tells me. So, if I get more info, I need you to go pee on his car.
