Blog from the kitchen !

I'm bloggin from the kitchen, in front of my scrambled eggs ! the Wi-Fi is fantastic ! Freedom ! (hum, where are these new coffee beans from ??? )

Here is the moment : "I cannot see any hard drive" said the install program. I have a SATA disk and XP needs a driver diskette to be able to install on it ! Some patience and we unmounted a floppy drive from a old 386 system, and this was just a bad souvenir. Now all this is running the hell good !

Fountik very happy with the result too. don't think it was the last time we opened the side door of this little monster. I just do not think that we need a floppy !

and that's all, folks ! we won !

once in the box, there are a lot of cables to connect. not easy ...

then the CPU, an AMD barton 3000+, and the ventirad, silent tower from thermaltake, with a large fan too, all on the motherboard, a K7 pro 2 from leadtek with inVidia force 2 400 chipset...

Starting the mounting : first of all the power supply unit, a 350w with a blue lamp in the main switch button and a large silent fan...

My own PC is at home !

I received all the parts of my new PC today !!!!! it's going to be very hot today evening :-)

on duty

I'm on duty this week : this mean I must be ready to answer my mobile 24/7. today they called me twice, 3 hours work. That's not bad because there's a good compensation behind it. And Sasha is going to be with us on the 11th if I manage to buy her ticket !!!

a new home PC !

And as a final point of this foolish week, I just bought a new PC on the web : a real battle machine, to play last games and watch dvds and divx !!!!! Last time I bought a PC was back in 1991, in the previous century :-)

A new portable PC

I'll get today a new portable PC from my company : hurraaaaaaaaaa !

tout va bien

la vie est belle !

quiet week

a lot of people on vacation during these week : the office is veeeeeery quiet, that's nice.

Super week-end

yesterday, Ed (buying vegetable and pizza for the coming week), then FNAC/Darty to buy a MP3 player for Fountik (he does know yet how to put songs in it :-) ), IKEA to fetch air filters for a kitchen appliance and a canceled together because a friend of us lost his mother.
today, we have again a planned together party, with different friends. it's at 7PM so all day long to kill time how I can : installing netbeans 4.1, java 1.5, posting on blogs, playing EE... all that is only fun !

nothing new

A post just to say that nothing new around. did you noticed how the weather is sweet these days ?
Last week-end we had a raclette party at home : I have some pictures but I didn't yet find time to post them. Be patient, they're coming up.

I'll be at work

I am going to work a little bit tomorrow, I have to reboot my server. That's going to shake-up saturday the good way.

Friday

I don't know what to do for the week-end. Last week-end was marked by the Nuit Blanche (that I didn't appriciate at all), but for the coming one, no idea. Looks to be very quiet at home, playing EE on PC, why not ?

Special for Angie :-)
