Fix It! - Fixing Scratches Is As Easy As 1 2 3

Fix It! - Fixing Scratches Is As Easy As 1 2 3.  I wonder if that stuff really works?  Ordered some today.  After you place the order there are at least three other offers they throw at you, pretty sure I didn’t order anything else…  Things like double your order, get another vacuum… automatically generate a Craig’s List ad to sell this shit you just ordered that won’t work…

Bought a LaCie key

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 11:37 pm

8 gig capacity, looks like a key, might be able to sneak it into places that don’t usually allow data devices. It’s waterproof, so maybe you could body pack it past a security check, not a cavity check. Nephew turned me on to it.

Dollar USB Cables work

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 8:54 pm

Not sure of the speed of these cables, but for a dollar each it doesn’t matter. Everybody else is trying to rip you off, maybe for distance, can’t speak beyond 60″.

Soundbar, maybe not so good

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 10:45 pm

Can’t fill the house from fireplace to kitchen with noise. It’s good enough. Might end up using MacBook Pro and cables to control media rather than dedicating a new Mac Mini. I can use iPhone as an iTunes remote. Ordered a couple of long cables that can be used in either situation.

Wacom Intuos4

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 7:35 pm

I’m getting me one of these, Wacom Intuos4.  Glad I put off my insurance replacement a bit, or else I’d be sad with the perfectly awesome intuos3. Turns out Wacom released a better different version right about the time I decided I needed to replace my burned up one. Jumped the gun and ordered direct from Wacom, Amazon sells it for almost 20 bucks less.

No Arby’s for dinner

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 7:28 pm

Mattress people will be delivering my new mattress and box spring tomorrow… what did they say, between 4 and 6 pm. Never had such a short delivery time frame, they better show up. Paid a ton for that mattress. I’ll probably get the runs during my first night sleeping on it. No worries, I bought a shit proof mattress pad at the same time I bought the new mattress. Better not eat any Arby’s before I put the pad on.

OSX on MSI Wind Nettop

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 10:05 am

It works! Sort of. No options to change the display to widescreen or the resolution from within OSX. Big problem with it is no audio. I might get a Plantronics 480 for a quick fix for the lack of sound. If I have to fuss around anyway I think I’ll use Ubuntu on it primarily.

Lemond G-force RT

Getting anexercise bike delivered on Monday. Not a cheap thing, but it’s worth it for my health, and to hang clothes on. Getting a good deal, a lot less than retail. Thing is damn comfy might just sit on it to watch tv and never pedal. Seems to be a lot more adjustable than the “Consumer Reports” winner. I tried them both out at a local store, not buying something that pricey without a test.

Which is louder?

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 5:48 pm

No clue which is louder, haven’t even plugged in the msi wind yet. Gotta think 360 makes more noise. Find out for sure next week when I have stuff needed to operate the msi. Stuff like a keyboard and hard drive.
