[01:12] <canthus13> Whee. FInally got crunchbang up and running of a USB drive.
[03:29] <Unit193> Cheri703: We are normally late :(
[03:31] <Cheri703> np, I was just worried you guys had come in, not seen me and left
[03:31] <Cheri703> no worries, I was fine with my smoothie :)
[03:31] <Unit193> You didn't have a sign :)
[03:31] <Unit193> 400FSB
[03:32] <Cheri703> I know! I was running SUPER late :(
[03:32] <Cheri703> ok, one sec
[03:35] <Cheri703> socket 478?
[03:36] <Unit193> Yep
[03:37] <Cheri703> I have a 2.8ghz P4 available
[03:38] <Cheri703> it will work with 400 fsb
[03:38] <Cheri703> the other one requires 800
[03:38] <Unit193> Really??
[03:38] <Cheri703> yeah
[03:38] <Cheri703> probably like $15? if that works for you?
[03:39] <Unit193> Should....
[03:39] <Unit193> Never done a CPU swap...
[03:39] <Cheri703> k, we can discuss :) as I said, I might not be able to make it on 12/16 :( so I'm going to email that ncsc guy, and see if he was planning to come or not
[03:39] <Cheri703> it's not terribly hard
[03:39] <Unit193> PM his name?
[03:39] <Cheri703> you'll need thermal paste (I have some)
[03:40] <Unit193> I know that... but not much else
[03:40] <Cheri703> ok, well, it's pretty much "take off fan/heatsink, remove cpu, clean thermal paste off both sides, put in new cpu, put on thermal paste, replace fan/heatsink"
[03:41] <Cheri703> wait a while, then restart :)
[04:49] <canthus13> Cheri703: Teh 'take off fan/heatsink' part causes more problems.
[04:50]  * canthus13 has gouged a couple of motherboards that way 'til he started using a socket driver to release the clamp.
[04:51] <Cheri703> how did you gouge it? mine have all been pretty darn easy to remove
[04:53] <canthus13> screwdriver slipping off the tab on the clamp.
[04:53] <Cheri703> ah
[04:54] <Cheri703> most of mine have had pretty friendly clamps, no screwdriver needed
[04:54] <canthus13> I've had some pretty ugly ones.. older ones in particular.
[04:55] <canthus13> Old thunderbird and athlon XP heat sinks were bad about it.

[15:54] <oda> paultag: This is the greatest thing i've seen on the internet in a long time http://www.27bslash6.com/foggot.html
[15:55] <paultag> oda, that dude rocks. He did the spider to try and pay for a bill back in the day
[15:55] <oda> paultag: "the spider"?
[15:56] <oda>  After george says his girlfriends family was killed in a traffic accident david says "Yes, I have heard those motorhomes can be a bitch to steer. Especially around tight corners during a police chase or moonshine run."
[15:56] <oda> BWAHAHAHA
[15:56] <paultag> oda, http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=665847
