<0> 6.4GB ATA/IDE 4200RPM 9.5mm
<1> That'll work
<1> I don't know why you wouldn't get a larger, newer hard drive though
<0> old computer
<0> its my dads
<1> So?
<0> he's gonna throw a fit when he hears about it
<1> Well, lesson #11 of the day... Don't **** with other people's ****
<0> lol
<0> good lesson
<0> so you think it will work?
<1> tpyatt: Check the specs of your computer at the compaq site and then you tell me
<2> just tell him the computer was full of spyware and he needs to buy a new one. That seems to be the main reaason most people get new PCs
<0> lol
<0> but i told him that i was putting on linux
<0> he will say i messed it up
<0> reality: i have the specs what should i look for
<1> tpyatt: drive size (i.e. 2.5") and connection... (i.e. ATA IDE)
<0> there is a place that says harddrive and next to it says 15gb
<3> if it can handle a 15gb drive, would almost be cheaper to get a 20gb one
<0> but the 6.4 is only 28
<0> im talking to a guy from compaq
<0> hes giving specs
<0> thank you all for all the help
<4> hi all
<5> OldMonk: hiya
<4> hi whitecap
<6> well now all my linux systems are debian again, I've just got to get mythtv and related programs installed and setup
<0> anyone in here know of an operating system i could just run from a cd that would need less than 64 mb or ram and could run wireless internet with a linksys notebook adapter
<6> tpyatt: google knows all
<0> lol
<3> libolt: google just does not tell all
<3> http://www.thermaltakeusa.com/product/DCfan/LEDfan/a2345/a2345.asp
<3> drool baby drool
<6> XyZzY: you just have to use the proper persuasion :)
<5> i wouldn't waste googles time for that, distrowatch.org
<0> i like this distrowatch
<2> they have a few to choose from
<1> WTF? When did SageTV Media Center for Linux come out?
<5> busch of course
<7> blech
<5> heh
<7> 'sup?
<5> just have to finish cleaning up after having company since right after work. friends and cooked burgers and fries for daughter and her family here too. had a housefull
<7> groovy
<5> good times
<5> middle grandson is staying the night, engrossed in Junp Start Kindergarten on the old 8600/300 mac
<5> he's 5, seems to fit for now
<6> my son's coming down for the summer on sunday
<5> one mouse button
<5> gah
<7> Cool deal
<7> brb
<2> the one buton mac mouse is GREAT for little kids
<2> my 2 year old loves his powerpc 7500 with os9
<5> kids 3-10 play on this one
<2> he really likes alphababy on the osx boes more
<2> boxes
<5> i used to have a x86 i ran beos on that had a game called babysmash. infants up
<2> whats that like? I have a copy of beos laying aroud somewhere
<5> it was freeware, locked the screen to the game unless three specific keys were pressed at the same time. printed letters, numbers lines and shapes in response to mouse/keyboard
<2> thats pretty much alphababy
<5> acompanying sounds
<5> i have games i bought for x86 when my kids were young that also run on these macs
<5> nice surprise
<2> how?
<2> new mac?
<5> older
<2> so how do you run x86 programs?
<5> the cd's contain info for both
<2> I see, they are the kids games that had both on the cd
<2> i forget
<2> I think my son will probably inherit the 733G4 tower I use as a jukebox after my brothers printing company replaces their dual G5 towers
<5> heh, aye. i'm waiting for my shop to replaice theirs
<5> design artists need more than that
<2> the dual g4 450 seems to still work pretty good at what it does. plus the door latch is broken so I don't want hime messing with it
<8> #
<8> exit
<8> #exit
<9> try /quit
<2> whitecap: what do you use there?
<5> where ?
<2> <5> heh, aye. i'm waiting for my shop to replaice theirs
<5> i'm a painter at a fab shop. i have a g4 there that i use for scheduling, research etc
<9> hey whitecap...whazzup
<5> thankfully design is a seperate building next door
<5> dogbert2: hiya
<2> ahhh
<5> she on the rag /
<2> lol
<5> s/\//
<2> I'm going to bed
<5> dogbert2: you'd think by this time you'd only use choice establishments
<9> whitecap, this is one of the better (supposedly) steakhouses in Las Vegas...couldn't prove it by me at all
<5> bad enough for legal, or just a nasty letter to the pres ?
<9> whitecap...sending a letter to the hotel's CEO...it's not very nice at all (IMO)
<6> dogbert2: ah so that's where Hoffa went
<9> libolt, I guess my $100 just doesn't spend the same way as a larger party of diners
<6> so what exactly happened?
<9> get to steak place (wanna eat 40oz steak)...waited 20 mins to be seated (reasonable)...but after being seated for 20 minutes, not ONE person bothered to take my order for food (whereas everyone else is getting their order taken, etc)...it was very annoying...perhaps they were thinking I couldn't pay for my food?
<9> or perhaps they didn't like the way I looked?
<5> shouldn't have moo'd
<9> I dunno...I went to McDs and got a double QP meal...then went home...
<5> ****s
<5> i personally would have got a waiters attention
<5> HEY DUDE
<9> whitecap...I mean, should I have to GO that far, when everyone else is getting waited on?
<5> no, but then you could have had the steak, embarrased the waiter and bitched to the ceo
<9> I try to be very patient, IMO
<9> I wouldn't do that...
<5> only as needed
<9> <--- has left a $10 tip for a $10 meal, btw
<5> aye
<9> I get good service, I tip very well, and rarely do I tip less than 20%
<3> looks like bluetooth 3.0 is setting it's sights on 60MB/sec speeds
<3> personally I still think it ****s that .us.gov taxes people on _estimated_ tips. tips are because a server did good.you should notbe force to pay on money you _might_ have made
<9> XyZzY...true...
<9> I felt like I did something wrong tonight...i'll mail the letter tomorrow and wait to see what the CEO d00d says
<10> man this is a long day
<1> I am so bored
<5> D-side: b33r it
<5> 22:40:41 up 260 days, 3:20, 16 users, load average: 1.53, 1.21, 1.15
<5> lotsa xterms
<3> cool - DVD-18 holds 15.9GB - now to just see media for these new dvd burnders
<3> s/ders$/ers/
<11> can anyone tell me how I mount a software raid 0 partition ( md style ) that is preexisting... I need to recover the data from this array..
<11> attempted to use mdadm but get error that md0 device not found..
<12> bai e vreun hacker pe aici

<5> glad someone is awake
<5> Sunblade: 'morning
<13> hi whitecap
<13> I should make a script which automatically silence when /kb'ed shouldn't be that hard
<5> wanna try again ? or is it me ?
<13> thanks I am already having my second one :)
<5> last part i grok, what is silence ?
<13> the command /silence
<5> ahh
<13> silence ignores a user at server level
<13> ignore is also an option ofcourse
<5> yep
