It's an NF95. (I think, but I do know there is very little to tinker with in that BIOS. I'll check anyhow.)

It's the Skt939 3500+. :)

I usually shutdown my PC when there's a thunderstorm (well, when it gets closer than about 3/4 miles), and unplug it if there's a lot of lightening.
I do tend to leave the router and server up,...

Still only a single core Athlon64 3500+ here... :( it's not doing too bad tho :)
I'm hoping to get a dual-core lappy over xmas, but we'll see... until then, I'll still use my old reliable (ish)...

xRyokenx: Orwell's nineteen eighty-four is one of the books I've nearly always carried with me ever since I first read it. What worries me is that I'm seeing so many things that match up between the...

(Yes, yes, I know... the correct answer is "because they're the government".)

I don't remember much of my childhood, and I have difficulty separating actual memories from imagined things. :x

The only things I can remember with any degree of accuracy was all the stupid...

Good guess, but wrong all the same. :P

Actually, I'm dualbooting OpenSuse and Ubuntu. :P
I'm using Ubuntu the most at the moment. heh heh heh.

EDIT: Well, I was... but I managed to break it......

IMO, migrating isn't too difficult (relatively...) but I've only ever moved non-vital things and it did take a while...
For me, my server migration was:

Been here since 06-03-2007...
And I've done no real mods (yet) due to lack of money and time. :(

Mods have been dreampt up and then tossed aside, but I promise I have something I'm working on......

"Paint It Black" - Rolling Stones

(I spent ages last night playing tracks at 140% speed, and it was hilarious... Rolling Stones on speed... xD )

ok... I clicked the link and the sheer size of the pics damn near killed my PC... xD

Now playing...

Have to say, they're better live. :D

been using Fx3 since beta5, and got RC1 as soon as it came out.
