PC
Pretty much anything computer related except for Apple Computers, which has its own category. I run a custom desktop computer with Windows XP for video gaming and anything requiring a lot of power, and an Acer Aspire One netbook that I take with me for work. I also sometimes talk about PC news.

Stuff
OMG I am so mad right now. You see, I had this rant all written out
and 3/4 of the way finished. BAM! Blue Screen. Thanks a lot
Windows. Windows XP Pro has been really bitchy to me lately. You don't often
see a computer like mine blue-screening while typing. Maybe if it was
Morteus's Computer.. It all started at JelOH while I was playing Doom
on my SNES Emulator. Holy Crap is that game fun using a gamepad, its a
whole new Doom. But on E1M3, it blue screened and wouldn't boot for
like 10 minutes. Once I got it to boot, it insisted on running
scandisk as slow as it possibly could. It took 2.5 HOURS to scan my
100gb hard drive. Luckily, they were still playing CS or Natural
Selection or something, so I didn't care. Jo and Tim took the
opportunity to play a game of Q3 without me though. Bastards. I
helped Tim out a little because Jo is getting much better and was owning.
Did I just say Jo was owning? Congrats, Jo! Anyways, my computer
is a bitch and I might do the classic sell-everything-buy-better thing that
everyone these days is doing. Microsoft Longhorn is the devil (See why
here).
The new shoutbox technically works, but it throws out a lot
of errors. I made it all black so you can't see it unless you
highlight it. Hopefully that will work by next weekend. You have
to scroll all the way to the bottom, and then click the expand button to
post. Knock yourselves out. The only rule I have is no posting
under other peoples names.
JelOH was ok, other than my computer having the problems I
mentioned above. It started with me driving past Fred Fuller park at
50mph in a 25mph zone. It's awesome how Fred Fuller Park never has any
cops around. Shit, there's a cop. You expect me to stop?
Hell No. The light ahead is green, so the light in my head is green
too. I shoot around the corner and fly to Kent State University before
I even see him pull out. (I knew he had seen me) Hiding in the
Tri-Towers parking lot, I bought some food for the LAN and proceeded to go
there. Haha Cop, I win. The LAN started slowly with a lot of CS,
which I didnt really care for. I talked to Big Ed while he was there,
a whole 20min. He got a new pickup truck. Its not the same Ed
without the blue neon-ness! Then my computer died.. 3 hours
later it was back to
normal.
Played some Natural Selection. I was on the alien team the whole night
and the first round, I rushed them as a weakling, before they could get
their gun sentries up. I took out the entire team and won the game 1
minute into it. Normally the game takes hours to finish, but I am so
l33t that I single-handedly won. Ever see Monty Python's Holy Grail?
Imagine me as the killer rabbit, thats what it looked like. No one
could hit me. It ruled. Later, in the new game I used the weak
alien again and managed to dodge every single sentry and slide my way past
all their team to their command center and I destroyed it myself. It
didn't win the game, but boy were they f'ing surprised. I am so good
at the little alien its not even funny. Jo helped me
stealth my
drives, which looks hella awesome.
The KSU Anime club is meeting 6-10 Friday nights and they are
showing Azumanga Daioh, which is an awesome comedy about some "average"
schoolgirls. You should come check it out. They are showing it
because I brought it in one night when we couldn't watch Jungle Wa Itsumo
Hale Nochi Guu. I have the whole series if people are interested.
Actually, BobOmega has it too, so ask him :D

First Post!
Not to much is going on these days. Lot of classes, little sleep. I have found out recently that Stouffer’s Macaroni and Cheese is the best food ever. Those small package heat up in like 6 minutes. It rules.
Jo (krhainos) just got his new computer that totally owns and I’m jealous, not that my computer sucks or anything. I broke the green light inside while taking the computer to anime club. (Everyone loved the Azumanga Daioh that I brought (which I got from Rence), especially my English teacher who told me i was his favorite student now :D (Big Grin) ). I will get a blue light to replace it. Blue will match my case better, but its not as original as the green one. Maybe I will get another green one later and alternate. Going out to dinner with the anime group made my day.
Project E is delayed until I have time to work on it or until i get a good idea for it. I have not given up, nor have I given out what it is. But it will be good.
