Just picked up one of these for the g/f for Valentines day....



Now I can track how many calories she is burning and generate a report for her to show her exactly why her ass is getting bigger......


I think this will work out very well!  :laugh

My drive came in the mail yesterday, now I can see why the complaints on the USB cord it does need to be longer, of course using it with a laptop it's plenty long enough. Dragged and drop about a 150G so far no problems, quiet as can be and barely got warm and 3.0 sure is faster than 2.0 and it is backward compatible, seems like pretty good little drive. :good One more drive to back up and the clear case is coming down for a remake. :good

Well, the tear down has started, amazing how much dust there is on the floor it's only been about 4 months since I built it, of course with 5 fans that don't help either. :laugh Guess I'll invest in some filters and it's not going back on the floor. :eek

All schools are facing the same scenario... :break   Cali schools are moving to National Standards with on-line testing (by 2014).  Both of my locations are in pretty good shape tech-wize, but some have little or nothing for students... :eek

Got a customer unit in yesterday, thought I seen dirty machines before but this takes the cake, it's an old HP bought back in 06 and it's never been opened up and never cleaned out since new, it's a wonder it didn't catch fire the CPU heat sink was totally plugged up with dirt. Complaint: It runs slow and locks up, gee wonder why? :rolleyes  :laugh has XP and a $hit load of crapware and only came with 512mg of ram "shared" so it only runs on 425mg, guess I'll fire up the air compressor today and give it a workout.   :good  :laugh
