Does anyone even read my blog? Probably not...oh well, I'll talk to myself then!
We got some new old machines from my dad's work. 3 in fact! One had a bad harddrive, one of the two monitors is pretty much screwed, and one of the keyboards uses something older than a PS2 plug. And we don't have an adapter. THat left us with 2 comps, one which has gone to Giselle's room and become her little Edubuntu (Educatonal version of Ubuntu) machine. BTW they all had Windows, and I reformatted all the drives for Linux. ^_^ Anyway, one of the other ones is an old compaq, at 350Mhz, which I stuck in as much RAM as possible from the sticks I grabbed from the other 2. This one has a server install of Ubuntu as that's what it will be...my server. Even though Soldat is acting funky on it, it can also become my FTP server (once I set that up -.-). And the other is yet to be used. I grabbed an 80GB for my server from an old (but newer) machine my aunt gave me. That machine has a bad mobo cuz it won't boot (no video signal, its onboard) so it's here. Fatty's machine has some 4GB SCSI HDD so that's fine. My server used to have a 4GB or 10GB drive, the 4GB doesn't work, I don't know why there's a 10 lying around. Either way, it was fun messin with all of this, and I'm learning a lot of Linux command-line stuff as my server has no graphical interface (GASP!). And I LIKE IT THAT WAY!

Put yours glasses on ;)
Smitty and Soldats commented on your last blog post, which means they atleast read this blog once.
(Well Smitty has posted comments b4...)
I actually read it when :
(a) My name is in it
or
(b) It's Soldat related
other than that I can't understand a single word you speak of :D
(p.s. yes I deleted the comment above, I was trying to insert a smiley :P )
