Yesterday was my first day working for Hewlett Packard. I was outsourced to them. Seems OK. Got a free mug, pen, baseball cap and laptop rucksack, which was nice :)
I was on holiday in the afternoon, as I was hoping to visit the children and give Rhiannon her 5th birthday presents. As it stands, I went round their house at 3.30, 5.30, 6.40 and 7.15 but they werent home :(
I'll keep all of the stuff for when I see her next - just like I did last year.
Anyway, things have got legal now as I'm fed up with with being pissed around with. I love my kids and want to spend my time with them, regardless of what their air headed, psychpathic mother thinks.
Anyway...
Did loads of PC stuff yesterday. My old dual P3 server has been decommisioned. Its DVD has gone into my new PC case, its 2x PIII-750s have gone into the new dual motherboard, as has its 10gb drive and 512mb memory, along with its CDRW. Its sound card has also moved into the Celeron machine. So the new dual P3-750 box has:
2x Intel Pentium III 750MHz @ 100FSB
768Mb PC133 SDRAM
10Gb Fujitsu HDD
40Gb Seagate and 80Gb HDDs Maxtor (RAID-0)
50x CDROM
24x12x24x Liteon CDRW
I also had to fit an 80mm fan to draw in some cool air - as the whole thing was getting quite warm. Might install a exhuast fan at the weekend as well.
The Celeron had the nice addition of a SB Live! with a Live Drive II. Its actually a quite nicely specced machine for a basic workstation.
My cable ties and spiral wrap arrived this morning and over the weekend, I should collect my new DVDRW, along with the new fans, etc for the new case. Once I have everything together, the new system build will be completed on Sunday. All I need now are cable tie anchors, which I will have to buy at lunchtime today.
