OMG!
I'm so weird. You'll find out why I say that later.

I hope everyone had a good thanksgiving. I did, except that I did almost all of the cleanup afterwards, and there was a lot of stuff to be hand washed! :(!! However, my niece was here and she made a nice mess with her food and ran around the house for a while.

I have a camera to do filming, but I have no idea what I'm filming! I have this project that has to be uploaded to the Macs by Monday at 8:30, which means if has to be filmed by Sunday evening. I don't even know if I'm filming an event or an interview yet! Maybe I'll do both, just to be safe. But doing one or the other requires a different soundtrack, you know. Which means I have to re-render the credits and everything. Ugh. I'll figure out what I'm doing soon, I hope, else I'm screwed.

And now for why I say that I'm weird. I saw some guy put together a small, quiet PC. That made me interested in it. So now, I have a nifty Excel spreadsheet on my desktop called "ITX compy" that has all the components I want listed and priced. The most expensive thing is the case and motherboard, of course. This computer is based on a motherboard that's 170mm x 170mm (17cm x 17cm) and has an integrated CPU. ( :( ) But the little single-core chip is pretty darn quick, 1GHz. Here's the list of stuffs for it, followed by the total thus far:
  • VIA EPIA-MII10000 MicroITX Motherboard
  • Silverstone LC12 Silver Aluminum Case
  • Panasonic UJ-85J Slim DVD Burner
  • 80GB HDD
  • 17 inch DVI LCD panel
  • Bluetooth/802.11G Radio(MiniPCI)
  • PCI to MiniPCI adapter
  • Slim Drive to IDE adapter board
  • IDE cable
Total Price: $754.93
(Before taxes.)

I know, I want a lot of stuff, eh? And I still want an iMac on top of all that! :O!!

EDIT: Updated list.
