What Are You Doing Right Now

Trying to make a decision on this old box. Server 2k3 is EOL in 4 months,.. but this box has a tape drive in it... It's sitting here blinking at me .. Load 2k3 or go CentOS.. Or just dump the box. It'll only be used for backups
-
Don't load 2K3 again, go with CentOS or scrap it.

The computer I got is SO SLOW! I think it's a second-gen i5, maybe 3rd gen, but probably second. 4GB of RAM, Windows 7 Ent x64, but it's a normal disk drive. 250GB Western Digital drive. The disk performance is killing it! It keeps lagging and hanging on normal processes.

You "got" the computer where?
-
Just bought the latest Tex Murphy game for the kids. These GOG sales are awesome.

The computer I was provided at my new job. Latitude E6510. Shipped about 4 years ago this month by the service tag...
-
If it had an SSD, it would be fine, I'm sure.

Agreed. I have my old 120GB SSD Kingston, which is lower-end, but it would FLY compared to now. I would gladly leave the original drive formatted as is and just clone it over to the SSD. I'd only have to reactive Windows. I have local admin privileges, so it's doable.
-
The machine is also out of warranty. The 3-year service contracted ended March 2014.
-
Just got The Vanishing of Ethan Carter from GOG.
-
I'm really impressed at the growth we've seen in the last two weeks here at ML
It's great to see but a little sad - I used to have time to keep up with all the cool threads but with so much good content I have to let most go by

@MattSpeller No kidding, the traffic has gotten much higher from a posting perspective. It takes real effort to watch everything now.

Agreed, and missing a day means 2 or 3 to get caught up.

Thank you all for helping our "little" community not be so little anymore ! -
Just bought Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura on GOG. I'm out of control.
-
And Dreamfall Chapters Season Pass - Special Edition
-
You're a game addict. These sales are designed just for you.
-
And now Seven Cities of Gold: Commemorative Edition. I really am an addict.
I used to play the original 1980s version of Seven Cities of Gold on the Commodore Amiga. It was awesome. I loved exploring and finding new places. So much fun.
-
I really need to get Steam on my Surface Pro3. That would be a good test of what it can do
