New stuff!

Ok I sorry to get your hopes up but this is really just some updates. The guide was extremely successful and we are going to make tons more and if anybody has any suggestions..... we need ideas!!!!

So to say few things about the Wind build, its waaaaay faster than the higher end 12 inch iBook G4 running tiger, It can install Photoshop CS3 in about 15 minutes over a 100mbit network (I need a gigabit router!!!! Maybe a wrt160n with DD-WRT :D)and it can run it just fine. I plan to make a video on it but I lack a camera good enough to do that with that won without making the viewer of said video want to gouge their eyes out with a spooooon. Oh and we got nearly 300K views on the guide, Not bad at all IMO.

Also the Msi Wind netbook works just as well including all drivers working spectacularly!

I thinks that's it for now, wait I forgot, any of you doing this with hardware other then the wind desktop should consult insanelymac.com as they have a lot more stuff when it comes to wide varieties of hardware and I can't help everybody with their individual circumstances.

OMG, I am bored.

So it has been a long ass time since I last put anything on here, Not like I havent done anything that would be worthy of this blogs incredibly low standards, its just that I am incredibly lazy.

Some things I have done since June......

-Aided in the installation of my school new cisco voip system and new network, which brought a whole bunch more things that I have done.

I have 3 servers now Each of them being an MSI Wind Desktop:

--Useless has 2 gigs of ram 1.6ghz intel atom cpu and two 500g seagates; it is running XP, Theansible.org, uTorrent, File Sharing for my massive 215 gig music library, Folding@Home (speaking of which join our team # 135878, we are in the top 5k), securtiy cam server, That is about it right now, I am working on getting set up for backing all my comps up.

--Lucky the second wind (austin and shelby's) XP, has a 500gb seagate and 512mb ram; It is running Utorrent only for music that is DL'd to Useless, A halo Serv, and folding.

--Scruffy the third wind (Shelby's) has a 100gb laptop drive and 512mb ram, It is Running OSX leopard (another thing I have done, pain in the ass getting that os on there, runs well) It is doing pretty much nothing atm, not sure what OSX servers are really good for, any ideas?

--There is a possibility wynter may be getting a fourth for more stuff.

-I have messed around quite a bit with windows 7 and it is OMFG level of awesome, it runs great on a wind with only 512 ram. I currently have it on my laptop and on my desktop that I just put a Nvidia 9800GTX+ plus in.

-Hacked comcast. :D

-Hacked our logo onto a cisco voip phone


-Austin and I got the PA systems and each of three sites of our school district working perfectly, saving the district like 14 grand.

-Discovered Hamachi

-I recently set up a server for our house, I repurposed my old server, It has XP on it and is running folding@home, remote scan and some other fun stuff.

-OH, I got an iPhone 3G, I jailbroke it and am mainly using for games and managing my servers and the schools network.

-I got a Leatherman Skeletool CX Awesome.

That is about all I can think of right now, I will explain how I got OSX on the wind a bit more in a later post.

EDIT: I also got a 22 inch velocity micro monitor, which fits perfectly on my desk :D

POST

Ha! You thought we were dead! Well think again, because we're back and... well, as abnormal as ever.

Moving forward

It's been forever since I (or any of us) last posted. We've basically been doing the same thing we have for a while: school, cisco, taking over the world, etc.
So, basically, Steve lent me his PDA and it has wireless, so I was bored and decided to post on here. This thing is awesome by the way, the only downfall is that Shelby can actually type faster than me... D:

Oh, hey tomorrow is Thanksgiving, that means good food - happy Thanksgiving!!!!

We're back.....


It's been a while since my last post or any posts for that matter, due in part to school, work and my own laziness. But heres a quick update of what I have done:

-I have finished the majority of my desk check it out here Desk

-Which brings me to my next thing, FLEX. I love flex, I was able to make the above with it.

-I have my own server in my room now, the way in which it connects to the Internet I will describe later, but lets just say it is fast. :D

-I have gotten an Arduino, you can imagine the fun that it brings.

-Vista sideshow + windows mobile = awesome.

More fun later time do do my english thing now.

So a combination of boredom, a digital camera and Flex equates to this.
