Just sent an e-mail to a former member of the school's computer science club who now works here as a tech guy; he's in the yearbook in front of a rack of DECtape reels so I'm hoping to coerce some information about our installation out of him.

CAN YOU COERCE ANY ACTUAL DEC COMPUTERS OUT OF HIM?? Or are they all gone?

i'd like to decorate my walls with them but that'd be blasphmey---*shot by bells*

in other news, white cat went to her home today. tears were shed in joy and grief (i did most of the grieving).

@Kari: Is there some reference I'm not getting? The bit about wanting to decorate your wall with DEC computers makes no sense to me :\
Also, sorry to hear about the kittens. Hopefully you can keep at least one :[

So, I actually almost have the entire set of Mario blind bag figurines. Luigi would end up being the hardest one to locate

i meant having the tape rolls hang on the walls like modern art. :\

Oh ^_^;;

Well, on a different note, I went by Goodwill today, and snagged a copy of Parasite Eve for $3. Not bad; since I've heard it's pretty good and it typically costs $15+ at Game-X-Change

*expects Bella to pop in saying "HOLY CRAP GUYS I FOUND VINTAGE COMPUTER MANUALS AT GOODWILL". Which would be cool :3*

Chocofreak13 · October 19, 2012, 10:23:39 AM

@STEW: HOLY CRAP MAN THAT'S PRETTY FREAKIN' SWEET

GODDDAMN I NEED TO GO BACK TO THE GOODWILL TO SEE WHAT I CAN FIND WHERE'S THE NEAREST GOODWILL

Nichi · October 19, 2012, 10:29:49 AM

You have me wanting to do the same, except travel to other thrift stores in my area besides the two I most frequent @_@

Bella · October 19, 2012, 11:31:17 AM

The closest goodwill is in Laconia. And they're super-overpriced. :L

And, well, I've never found any really interesting computery/technology things there. Unless you count that Redhat 5.2 software set, which is only moderately interesting......

Chocofreak13 · October 19, 2012, 11:58:05 AM

NEW RULE ALL POSTS INVOLVING GOODWILL MUST BE SHOUTED FUCK YEAH

I THINK THE NEAREST ONE'S NEXT TO MY SISTER'S WORK MUST GO

BELLA FIND ANOTHER ONE THEN OH YEAHHHH

Nichi · October 19, 2012, 12:16:52 PM

@Bella: You have RedHat 5.2? I have a CD-R of it floating around somewhere xD

@Kari: SOUNDS GOOD :3

So, filling out another application for Game-X-Change; since they're hiring once again. Also, waiting on Path of Exile to finish downloading (I started the download at about 10 or so this morning, and it's only up to 30%)
