I Love the Smell of Silicon in the Morning
I’m in the process of breaking in a new Dell PC, which is actually going rather smoothly now that I figured out which of the video ports on the back I was actually supposed to plug the monitor into. Next up is wiping my old Dell clean, installing Windows XP on it, and giving it to Pattie. Since the copy of XP that I have was given to me by a friend shortly after the OS came out, I expect to be hunting for drivers for much of the weekend. So if you hear the rending of garments coming from the northeast U.S., that’s me.
About Dave Thomer
Born and raised in Philadelphia. Studied philosophy at Fordham University in the Bronx, where I made many great friends and met my wonderful wife. We moved back to Philadelphia, where I studied philosophy some more and became a teacher. Online and off, I'm looking for ways that we can be better citizens and build stronger communities.
