There's good news and then there's good news. There's also some bad news. Good news: Some friends visited from Arizona a week ago. We had a grand time--we went out to eat, watched a movie, and basically did all the things we used to do back in the old days. It would be a nice group of friends for sure. I think I even managed not to creep out one of my friend's wives (it's the first time I'd met her). That's quite an accomplishment for a geek like myself.
Bad news: One of them had been infected with some kind of turbo-infectious cold which the person then dutifully spread to every last one of us, unaware of their own participation since symptoms had yet to manifest. We all got sick this last weekend except for the one who had it first. He was sick a day sooner. heh
Good news: We're all over it now. It was really quite mild. It also gave me an excuse to chug orange juice. I don't normally get a lot of OJ since it has a lot of calories.
More good news: AMD's new 800-series chipsets are out. Supermicro already has four boards available based on these new chipsets with more coming soon. I am excited and will be buying one as soon as I can. Hopefully it will help out my system's performance. Hello, quad PCIe 2.0 x16 + dual PCIe 2.0 x8 (x4) + PCI + 16 DIMM motherboards.
