Snazzy new version of LogJam
Feb. 2nd, 2004 11:57 pmHi!
It's been a while...I was busy at work, then at home, then they painted at work, and that made me sick for a few days(like all the past weekend), and now, I almost feel better!
Let's see what has happened recently...my primary computer died! Gee, that's been fun! Luckily, I had just finished building my new supersystem...Dual Althon 2600+ processors, 512 Meg of ram 140 Gig of storage, an NVIDIA 5200FX with 128Meg DDR RAM, Sound Blaster Audigy Platinum, Dual SCSI 320 controller on the MB, a Tyan beastie, and I need to move my old hard drives over to my new system...I just copied my old ~ directory to the new system...and I forgot to move over some of the apps that I had installed on the new system, like the one I am using to enter this...LogJam...I am playing with a beta...looks good so far.
As far as I can tell, my old system's motherboard died...now it's give me 4 years of good service, and at least one or two years of good service to it's previous owner. I has survived two power supplies dying on it...no mean feat, and I upgraded the CPU (to a 900MHz Althon) and memory on it twice. So it owed me very little..may it rest in peace in that Summer Land of Motherboards.
All of the drives I've tested seem to have survived, but I haven't tested them all, and the expansion cards. if everything checks out fine, I may just pick up a cheap motherboard and CPU, unless I can get a good price on an old Slot A motherboard...I hope that the old CPU and memory are good...I really haven't done major diagnostics on it yet, since I had my supersystem all ready to go...
It's now midnight, it's raining out, and I should crash...good night!
