Your tax dollars at work.

If you're interested in some horridly, badly wrong, yet still entertaining, images, look no farther!

Also this. Words fail me at times. Imagine me falling over my desk laughing, and you're almost there. Irony, thy name is spud-u-lite.

Eh?

When does a barebones "kit" cease to be barebones? That looks like a fairly complete system to me...Or is it still called a barebones kit because you have to put it together?

I'm pondering what I need to get the other PC working again. Memory and a HD - probably no more than 40 GB. Memory I'll probably get a 512 chip, swap that with the 128 in the new system, and after that I think I'm ready to go. Not sure what I'd do with it, though. No room in the case for a capture card and second hard drive, so I don't think I can make it into my MythTV box, and the mobo only has one working IDE channel - no telling what'll go next.

Chances are I won't bother until after I get all moved and happy. Need to cut the expenditures until we have the mortgage.

[EDIT] Maybe I'll see if Terry or Keith have a spare HDD, CD Drive, and memory laying around, and use this to play around with the different linux distros I haven't played with yet. That could be fun. Of course, I only have one monitor, so there are problems there as well. Maybe NMCI will be nice and let me buy my current work monitor at bargain-basement prices. THAT would rock!
