Last night I went to Micro Center [Sadly, there’s no Fry’s, yet.] and bought an HP [an HP is not grammatically correct, but I like the way it sounds better than ‘a HP’] a305w refurbished machine for cheap. I bought it so that Jessica could have a computer out in the front because I’ve hogged all of the other machines in my office, which is finally up and running.
I’m actually sitting in my office right now coding. The DSL modem got here yesterday, it’s not what I wanted and it doesn’t work with my NETGEAR router yet, but I’m going to keep it just so I can work. I love my setup, with the exception that I’d like to have four or five more monitors.
Right now my setup consists of:
1 Dell D600 Latitude laptop
1 Frankenstein Desktop with Soundblaster Audigy ZS
1 Both computers are attached to a Dell 18″ Flat panel monitor – source switching enabled.
1 Microsoft Ergonomic (“Natural”) Wireless Keyboard and Mouse for the laptop
1 Roland Dinosaur (D-10) keyboard
1 Alesis SR-16
1 Sony Tape Deck to record tapes into MP3’s
1 Altec Lansing Surround Sound speaker package – which can’t be turned up loud enough at the present
1 Really nice desk given to me by Phil – a really nice guy at the church
1 Epson ‘perfection’ scanner
1 HP Deskjet 950C printer
1 Wacom tablet for graphics work
1 Wife who wishes she could get her husband away from the computers for a few minutes
1 Daughter who thinks CD’s go in a VCR that now doesn’t work
1 Broken Crystal Lewis ‘Hymns – My Life’ CD
pictures are forthcoming:)
