I’ve been doing a bit of Christmas shopping, but mostly for myself so far
I’ve priced out and have ordered an all new computer for myself. The parts are as follows:
- AMD AthlonXP 1800+ CPU
- Gigabyte GA-7VTXE motherboard
- LeadTek GeForce3 Titanium 500 graphics card
- 512MB PC2100 ECC DDR memory
- IBM Deskstar 60GXP 60GB hard drive
- and a slick new aluminum chassis
With any luck, I’ll get it near the end of next week. Hopefully in time to have a bit of a LAN party next weekend. Matt will still be around then, unfortunately Evil Dave will have left. Ah well.
In other news, I hurt my back last weekend, and it’s been hurting all week. Today is the best it’s been yet, so I’m rather happy. Matt, Evil Dave, and I went and saw Harry Potter on Wednesday night. It was better than I was expecting it to be. I have read the books, and liked them, but wasn’t expecting the movie adaption to be all that good. I was pleasantly surprised.
Tonight, Andrea and I will probably be going to see Behind Enemy Lines, which looks pretty good. She’s on her way to meet me here at SimPro now. yay!
