Do you need to organize your data??? Here is the perfect solution. These cute pieces called ‘Thumb-Drivez’ not only help you to keep your files and data in place but also add an element of quirkiness to your laptop.
Both artistic and fully functional, these guys also let you use both the side by side USB ports in your laptop simultaneously.
Imagine a Pizza or a burger hanging out of your laptop….. It’s a definite conversation starter and a something your colleagues will envy.
Lian Li PC-82 Mid-tower case. Full aluminum construction for excellent heat dissipation, not like some of the cheap cases with an aluminum face plate and steel panels painted to look like alunimum... Owner assembled. These are the best built cases I have ever worked in. Currently has an AMD 64 Athlon 3200+ CPU on a BFG Tech N-Force 4 Ultra Socket 939 motherboard, Corsair 2 Gigabyte Twin-X XMS Platinum Matched Pair PC3200 400Mhz RAM, PCI-E video card is an ATI Radeon X1650 Pro with 512MB DDR2 and Creative Labs Blaster Fatal1ty X-Fi sound card.
Upgrading is a risky business! When I went to the new motherboard, I had to drop Windows 2000 Pro (which I prefer) to use Windows XP Pro because of the lack of drivers for my video card and 2000 Pro. Running certain games on this system caused several lockups and reboots, which were eventually traced to an incompatibility with my Sound Blaster Audigy and Windows XP!
I find it amazing that Microsoft releases software which does not work with the accepted industry standard for audio... Creative supplied a patch - which wouldn't install - gave an error. I still hold Microsoft accountable - when they release a new operating system, they should make their software backwards compatible with the existing commonly used hardware! I guess they don't care anymore though. Look at Vista to see what I mean...
For Studio Lighting class we had to put together a theme for an image that could coincide an article to illustrate the topic. I chose computer hardware.
This was shot in studio on black reflective glass with a Mamiya 645 with a Phase One Digital Back. Tungsten lighting 500W Mole Richardson Fresnel as Key with diffusion panel and a Black flag in the back. Also in use was a 1000W MR fill light
sPHENIX is a radical makeover of the PHENIX experiment, one of the original detectors designed to collect data at Brookhaven Lab’s Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. It includes many new components that significantly enhance scientists’ ability to learn about quark-gluon plasma (QGP), an exotic form of nuclear matter created in RHIC’s energetic particle smashups.
Donald Willis sent in this photoraph of a logic diagram for the Manchester Mk 1. Okay, so it's not strictly speaking hardware, but it *is* a piece of computing history, so we're glad to see it all the same!
Jim's Apple2e lives under his desk, but it's still hard at work...
Jim says: 'I monitor the output of my firewall on an old Apple //e using a wee bit of code knocked up in ten minutes. It's at a fully authentic 300 baud and makes a nice 'tackatackatacka' noise when displaying new entries.'

This ZX81 has done well to survive so long in Bob's care: "Due to its wedge shape I must admit that i have previously used the odd ZX80/81 as a door wedge - well, it was perfectly shaped! Also, I learnt to interface to these fine examples, including linking to relays, 12v car batteries, thin fuse wire and fireworks in order to 'automate' early firework 'shows' at home."
Of the Spectrum 48K, Bob is perhaps less fond, commenting that the keys "seemed to have been modelled on a pencil eraser, they didn't work work and just smudged."
As to how he's hung on to them so long, Bob says only this: "simple, my wife doesn't or at least didn't know I had them!"
Good luck, Bob, and hope you find another decent hiding place!
