Spirited Away

DAMMIT! It's not showing anywhere in the Baltimore-Washington Area!!!!

Maus, Spirited Away, Animatrix

First, happy birthday merryjest! MAUS!!!!

Second, my theater is getting Spirited Away (the anime movie being advertized). Aparently, corporate's website doesn't get the times when we (the theater) set them. I should propose having our own website, egyptian24.muvico.com, to direct to a computer we control.

Third, I just saw the Animatrix: Final Flight of the Osirus. They're pushing the limits again -- I found myself thinking "Damn, this is real" over and over again. I mean, it has two knotches to overcome: The movement of the human actors is *too* smooth, and the skin tones and overall coloring needs tweaking (maybe gamma correct the bodies?). I mean, you're not supposed to concentrate on the teeth!!!

I installed an Iceberg 1 Cooler from Ahanix Corp. Damn, you can now hear a pin drop in this computer now.

Unfortunately, I still have to double-boot.

ketrien says my Biostar M7-VIB mobo is poo, and I should look for a better motherboard. Asked for a suggestion, and he said a EPoX 8K9a+, saying they're cheap but good mobo's.

I checked off of their site, has a few extras I'm not tempted on getting. Found the 8K9a2, though. It's $90 with shipping ($81 with $8 flat shipping via UPS).

Now let me see how hot my rig is doing...
