Two more for the Quake LAN
Managed to get in some time early this morning before the long work weekend begins. I got Gort and Invisible Boy up and running (yeah, more named iMacs). Invisible Boy is an original Bondi blue iMac, while Gort is the last generation of the CRT iMacs. All that is left is the last iMac I have in an upstairs room, and then I get to test them - probably on Monday - using the LAN equipment. I do this every year, just to make sure it will all work. Gort did act up a bit, but I hope it was just teething issues (it crashed twice on me while testing - but I was pressing random buttons trying to get the stat part of the screen to appear in Quake - for some reason it was off).
Other than that, I managed to take in a small but cool ice cream social, with my younger niece Stephanie playing violin. Pretty good stuff, and that coming from someone who doesn't care for out-tune concerts from kids too much. They were all pretty much on track. Nice to see a young one playing in the orchestra. I used to do cello many years ago (and I miss that too some extent).
Okay, that is it for this early morning. I need to get some sleep. I'll be back again tomorrow, probably with a report on how much snow we got here (nothing yet - but we're supposed to get like 3-5 inches or so they say).
iMac line-up so far...
