Something Odd!

Heard on IRC today..

*groan*

My 1.2 GHZ PIII Commodore SX-64 – on the day I threw out 2 C64s. *sob* I still have the 1541 drive so I’ll be moving my collection of 300 5 1/4 floppies onto the PC in the next few weeks and there on to several backup CDs.
Oh yeah, I remember seeing the SX64 in a computer shop here in Cork a few years ago. It is HUGE! I also had reviews of it from way back in the 80s and they weren’t impressed by it’s portability either then.
Roll on Vice.

Lots of stuff getting thrown out today. Inluding many of my old C64 things. That’s a huge collection of Zzap64 mags,. CF mags, ACE’s and more games than you can shake a stick at. I’m keeping my c64 floppys though, I want to copy them onto the PC this week. Owen’s getting the C64+1541 and my A500 too. It’s a sad day 🙁

An Xft Hack – just going to test it now, got it from the /. discussion on fonts today.

*phew* Blogger is back online. Here’s the /. discussion.

From Hotrods to PCs

The Vulnerable.org Project. – random stuff on every click, good for a laugh!

Penalty Points are being introduced for driving offenses on November 1st so I went searching but didn’t find anything directly related. I did find an interesting article on Jury Service however.
