On a Related Idea

Ever notice how these two hobbies (paintball and computers) have a sort of see-saw relationship.

They are both money hogs, and if you spend money on one - inevitably money spent on the other decreases. Just like a see-saw going up and down.

Man!!! Why do I have to have such expensive hobbies?


And to the man running FreeBSD - that IS the way to go!

The bigfoot was $45CDN 3 years ago, great deal. It's big slow loud & stable. Seen uptimes over 200 days, and has been running continuously for the last 2 years.

My FreeBSD box is a mail & web server, SSH server, router & firewalls the Winblows box.

The Other BSD Box does Quicktime Streaming & DNS (Mac OS X is also BSD)

On my desk is a Dell with dual P3 800's 512MB RAM and about 80GB disk with an NEC 18" flat panel. It has an Invidia GL vid card a pretty nice sound card (don't recall what) speakers, sub-woofer, etc.

My OTHER computer has 528 1GHz P3's, 265 1.6GHz Athlons, 256GBytes of RAM, 16TBytes of disk (give or take a TByte), 250 Invidia GL vid cards and a 4 by 6 display wall (7680 by 4096 pixels). There's also a few miles of wire and fiber optic, 5 network switches a ver large UPS system and two large air conditioners.

You can play a mean game of "Quake" on that sucker!

I also have a machine at home and a loptop, but they are kindof anti-climactic!

oh yeah - and ALL of them run Linux (and nothing else)!
