Just a quick update

I am still working on various things, but time for a small update: My desk system is still being designed, but I am am working on it now. Catch ya'll later.

Computer Otaku's Desktop Situation

So for the time being I have decided to use some stands meant for TV-Dinners as desktops for my two laptops. Currently my ACER ASPIRE 5920 is being updated to Ubuntu 9.04 so hopefully it'll finish soon. I know this is a short post for today, but tomorrow I will have a more in depth article, so I hope you all have a great day today! Later days.

The Computer Otaku on: Operating Systems

Well...I've listened to all arguments for, against all Operating Systems and I gotta say: MY GOD PEOPLE SHUT THE HELL UP! I mean Jesus, use what you want to use, don't be religious people and try to convert others. I use Mac OS-X, Windows XP, Windows Server 2008, Red Hat Linux Server, Ubuntu Server, Ubuntu, Fedora Core, Windows 7, Windows Vista, FreeBSD and even fawking Amiga OS. Stop arguing about this stuff people.

Though to be honest this Laptop I am using to blog isn't vary good for video watching, as it has little in terms of ram, but its good for writing online, I may just turn this into a Cloud Computer, as everything essentially sucks on it, it has 10gbs of HDD, 500MHz PowerPC g3, 320 MD SDRam.

Its pretty good for what I use it for, but not for much else.

I wonder how good the iMac I got is, it's one of those original models, so its probably gonna be fail somewhat. But I enjoy this old tech.

Project is currently stalled somewhat, as the price to turn it into that is cost prohibitive at the moment. So here is my current, cheap project: Make atleast 2 desks or find 2 for cheap. See ya'll!

Introductions are in order no?

So I affectionately am known as nerdlinger (Jock: NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERD) online, but really who am I? I am a computer otaku. I love computers, I love everthing about them. I enjoy reading and learning and buying computers. Hell I have an Amiga 1000, and I think its just so...cool! I know I am a weirdo but its just who I am.

I am A+ certified, MCP, Network +, MCST (For Active Directory and General Server 08 configuration) certified, I am working on my security + Certification and my cwna. I am hoping to find a job soon in my local market that will help me continue my hobby. I am a fan of PC games, I play them all the time. I am also a big fan of general electronics, I gots mai own soldering gun. I own a PS2, Gamecube, about 20-ish games for each. I am a fan of comic books, manga & anime.
