Another Successful Operation

My diagnosis of my Linux PC's motherboard was apparently correct - I was able to swap in a new, inexpensive board (Newegg FTW) and get X back up and running with minimal difficulty and zero loss of data

dude, i just need a new computer... i can barely run WoW on my linux box, and cedega kinda sucks for new games coming out... booo. which is sad, because i really like ubuntu.

i need to finish good omens, and you just reminded me ;) i'm a slow reader, freshly out of college. i need to re-train my brain to read novels, not textbooks.

Oh, Good Omens was good too - but I liked the solo Gaiman better, to be honest.

Next up I'm starting a massive (for me, anyway, four-book) series, Tad Williams' Otherland.

I'm this close to adding a spare drive onto my system and using it as a dual boot - there aren't many games or applications I use in Windows at all, but I am leaning back towards "having options".

Besides, I think dual boot is easier than it used to be, what with newer motherboard chipsets having a more diverse set of BIOS options.

'Now I can get back to ignoring the internet, yay!'

MAN that would be so great ...
