OK, so one of my appartment mates who before break had bought a bunch of computer stuff and rebuilt a machine in his room bought 2 servers and set them up in his room now.

Says he is doing distributed computing for Stanford on a protein folding program, but really he says he just likes computer parts.

You should see the cooling fans (and a normal desk oscillating fan to boot).

He has not tried to sleep with the fans on yet, since he just got back today.

Dave, sounds like you have a potential protege.


Naw. I'm not that into computers. :D Biggest thing I have now is a dual core.

Adventure week for me, since my cousin is here.

We charged San Diego today and went to the USS Midway, the Maritime Museum and Old Town. Best part was flying there and back instead of the 3 hour drive.

This getting up early is starting to wear on me. :D Bright and early at VNY.
