People's Army of Sonoma

Some of you may already know in an overclocking mishap I seem to have fried my southbridge chipset. In my failure to double check my work I forgot to reattach my southbrige heatsink/fan so my cooling efforts failed to work and she go poof. so....I will have very limited internet access untill my new motherboard arrives. hopefully it will be here sometime next week. I went with this just incase anyone was curious.

Hopefully I will be back in action by the end of next week. So see ya guys for a few CSs

Further proof all electronics are built with a bit of smoke in them and it is a required component.

The smoke comes out and it no workie any more.

ROFL

I have seen smoke come out and still workie. A friend shorted his soundblaster card more than 10 years ago, and the card still works to this day.

Which reminds me, all of my 1st computer stuff still works, but all the latest and greatest seems to go bad within two years. Hmm.. Starting to think they are making things with shorter life spans on purpose! Think of all the old equipment you have in the closet, I bet it is there just because it is old not broken, and all the broken stuff in the garbage is the new improved. Well, in my house anyway.. 486 in closet still works, p4 in floor not so much.

I am waiting till my company is ready to toss a server rack, so I can put a linux cluster together with all my old PCs.

What do you guys see wrong with this picture?

I purchased on 3/3/07 with 2 day delievery but It say 3/7/07 is the expected ONTIME delivery. My math says thats 4days not 2 WTF. I paid $2 extra so it can arrive a day later then my standard ground package.

What they NEVER tell you is that Saturday and Sunday don't count as days to them...LOL...they mean two business days which are Mon-Fri....

If it dont plug into a USB port I try not to mess with it.

lol.....hey even those USB ports can be confusing at times
