It's so cool! my Epia 800 motherboard has arrived!

and it kicks serious ass :)

it's just so indescribably cool....you can go to VIA and see the specs...but there's no way you can comprehend its coolness unless you've seen it in person.

Anyway, that's all for now! Keep /.ing and always, always, read my journal!

Here goes...be prepared to send me flames.

HOW TO BE HAPPY

1. Hot Grits

2. Natalie Portman

3. All your base are belong to us

4. ???

5. Slashdot!!!

Wow, imagine a Beowulf cluster of journal entries.

Of course, in Soviet Russia, Slashdot needs you to be happy.

I can't believe i'm wasting space with this. Hopefully, someone will find it amusing.

Paypal is an awesome service. They responded to my cracked account in notime and i got all of my money back, except a 10 dollar overdraft fee.

I have all the parts necessary either in my possession or on their merry way for my Ammobox computer contraption. It'll be as follows:

Via Epia 800 Mainboard with TV-out, Onboard sound card, onboard shared-mem Video, USB, and LAN.

800 MHz Via C3 cpu

512MB pc133 RAM

Geforce 2 MX 440 PCI video card with 64 MB ram (if an Ammobox computer is incapable of running quake 3, all is not right with the world)

145W tiny little power supply (ATX)

Toshiba laptop DVD-ROM

Ammobox case, approx. 11x7x6.

it's gonna rock. :) i can't wait till its done.

In other news, the other hunks of steel, silicon and gold in my room are as ususal mostly inert. I really gotta do something with those. My plans thus far have been:

1. Aquire literal tons of hardware

2. ???

3. Network!!!

Anyway, that's all for now. Do yourself a favor and visit Real Life and see what Greg Dean is up to.

Oh, and on a sidenote, school tomorrow may be cancelled! w00t!!!
