I added the max memory (a total of sixteen GB) to my new computer.


Hell, I did not mention that I bought a new computer, did I?




I wish I could upgrade my brain.

I've been around, but I haven't been very active online for a while.

Is that the series with Carl Sagan doing the narrating?   IF so, I have it on VHS from the beginning of VHS, availability.

To my great surprise, after getting my new video receiver up and running, I have found that even playing an ancient video tape, the quality of the reproduction is vastly improved from anything I have ever seen. The receiver de-interlaces, upscales and de-snows the imagery and what is projected is well improved over what the original was capable of producing.

I would love to have it on a proper disc!!

I bought a Logitech Squeezebox, two small car audio dual twelve blank enclosures, a terabyte size HP external hard drive, a spare Nvidia GT 400 graphics card, an Antec gaming computer case, a BFG one thousand watt power supply and several cables off our clearance cart - all for less than three hundred bucks.

The only things I can use right away are one of the cables and the hard drive. The rest will just sit until I can buy more computer shit.  I can use the Squeezebox this summer as an outdoor source for music.

I bought some conditioner for my hair, some socks, some biscuits for tomorrow and some fancy salt and pepper shakers for my dad as a housewarming present.

That's the one. All 13 episodes on DVD, with reasonable quality and "science updates" by Sagan form some time before his death.

I love that series. Carl Sagan was instrumental in my decision to study astronomy.

I'm jealous.  All I have at the moment is integrated graphics and a PSU that isn't compatible (in a non-warranty-voiding manner) with current high-end graphics cards.
