Throwing money at it...
This stupid computer is SO DUMB! We had JUST got back from buying a brand new CDRW drive, and I installed it and was reconnecting all the hardware when I realized I forgot to put the power plug back in the machine. I put it in the receptacle and flipped the switch, and FLASH! BAM! The power supply blew up! So we expended $65 on the machine today alone, not to count all the hardware my dad and I have bought for the thing. Here is a list of all the original hardware in the machine now:
  • CPU
  • CPU Heatsink
  • Motherboard
  • The Linux hard drive
  • Modem
  • Floppy disk drive


That's as compared to the list of new things we've bought:
  • Sound Card
  • NIC
  • CPU Fan replacement
  • CD Burner, Twice!
  • Graphics card
  • Hard drive
  • Mouse and keyboard
  • Printers
  • OS's


I'm sure there's more than that, but I lack the mental capacity to mention them. If you view the page source, there is a funny comment in the middle of that second
    thing.


    Well, at least now it can print, play music, make pretty pictures, and be stupid... Better than yesterday!


    In other news...

    I WANT A LYNXMOTION ROBOTIC ARM THINGY!!! It's the "6" one... The one with 5 "degrees of freedom"/axes/thingamabobs. It costs $400 though... But it's so cool! I can make it pick things up and throw them! :-D That's SO awesome!


    I'm a little hyper, as you might have noticed. It's fun to be hyper! I can be more annoying that way. :-P


    I should go do something now... It's only just after 11 and I'm bored already!

    Seeya!

    EDIT: Whee! I installed Office, my printer, Jasc PSP9 & AS3 and HTML-Kit today!
