Summer
I’ve been extremely busy this summer as a result I’ve been hardpressed to update regularly. Although I’ve been working on my theme off and on I haven’t written anything in quite sometime.
I work for a school system and when the kids go home for the summer my job really takes off. I have to reimage computers, fix stuff the kids have broken during the year, and implement any new technology that the teachers will be using the next year. As soon as kids get back in school things will calm down and I’ll be updating more.
New work computer
I just got to order a new pc for myself at work. Although it was a Dell (state contract with Dell for K-12 education) it has a Pentium Core 2 3.0Ghz with a gig of ram and a nice 19 inch lcd. All for under a thousand dollars too. I’ve been wanting to try out one of the Core 2 since I built my gaming machine to see if all the hype about AMD getting beat by the Pentium chip was true. Anything will be better than what I have now, a Celeron 1.7 with 512 mb ram. It will be almost quadrapole the processing power.
New Toys for Me
The school system in which I work just received a very, very, very large format printer.
This thing will print up to 24 inch charts. Now you could print some photos with that. I was setting it up yesterday, before being interrupted to go to a meeting.
A little about me.
Currently I’ve been attending college to acquire a degree in Computer Information Systems: Networking Specialist. I’ve taken and passed the A+ and Net+ certification tests, and I’m currently working on taking my CCNA. This Web site and for that matter this server have come about through many hours of tinkering and searching on google. I’ve also just recently gotten an email server and webmail server up and running. It’s overkill for a home network but so is 15+ computers, Gigabit Ethernet to the desktops, 10 printers, two Network Attached Storage devices, and 1 server with Web, Email, Ftp, Active Directory, WSUS running. I enjoy working with computers and networks what can I say.
