Computers, Cameras and my Website
So…it’s occured to me that I have to be the worst software engineer in the world when it comes to how little computer equipment I actually own. As it currently stands, the only computer I actually use on any regular basis is the laptop I was given at work. Seriously, that’s it. I currently don’t have a machine I use that’s my own.
Oh I have boxes, but they’ve just been travelling with me from Coast to Coast going unused. At the moment, they are sitting in the closet of my office. Totally unused. My old powerbook, haven’t touched it. Mind you, the screen is messed up, but even then, it still works as a desktop…I just haven’t booted it up in a year.
I also don’t have a digital camera. Seriously, mine broke in April of 2007 and I just never replaced it. Which explains why I hadn’t uploaded any pictures since well…2007.
So yeah, I think over the next few months, I’m going to start correcting some of this stuff. First up, replacing my digital camera. Considering how cheap they are now, it’s silly that I don’t have one. Then, I’m going to rebuild my home server. I miss having raided storage that was up and running. And with All of the advances in home server stuff, I really should get that back up. Finally, sometime around November/December, I need to replace my powerbook. Going to get another one, most likely, seeing as how they run Windows now and having my own, non-MS owned machine would be nice.
And oh yeah, I need to update my website. Seriously. Nothing crazy, just need to update the version of WordPress and fixings. As well as change the image at the top. It’s over two years old. If nothing else, I should at least add some different images and make it rotate.
