rick_hevery time I build a machine I swear I'm not going to do it again16:54
rick_hthen I keep doing it16:54
jrwreni never swear I never will again16:54
jrwrenbecuase I know what the non-self-build market is like, and I'd not want to run that shit.16:54
jrwrenworking on my car on the ohter hand... :)16:55
rick_hI've lost track of the right cpu/socket/etc BS16:55

rick_hyea, same here16:55
jrwrenid LOVE to get an ivy bridgethis summer16:55
rick_hmore than that for me since I've gone laptop16:55
rick_hyea, that'll be the debate, do the desktop upgrade and keep the laptop, or upgrade the laptop and keep using the desktop16:55
jrwrenoh true, and now I need ot balance what new job gives me.16:56
jrwrenassuming its a new job16:56
rick_hnow that I'm home full time it's getting tempting to go all 8 core, dual video card, 16gb of ram monster desktop16:56
jrwreni do laptop/desktop/laptop/server16:56
rick_hserver is now moved to ec216:56
jrwrenoh yeah, that would be so sweet.16:56
rick_hactually I need to go get that out of the DC soon16:56
jrwrenoh wow... server moved to ec2, interesting.16:56
rick_hyea, dual ec2 small instances paid for as reserved high capacity instances16:57
jrwrenthat won't work for me because my server serves movies and tv, i want it to work offline16:57
rick_hah, yea16:57
rick_hmy desktop does all my local server stuff16:57
jrwrenif only I didn't to movie/tv16:57

rick_hand just have one master machine16:58
jrwrenunderstood16:58
jrwrenATI has those 3-dvi out cards.16:58
rick_horly16:58
jrwrenbut i've no idea what linux on desktop video cards are good.16:58
jrwrenyup.16:58
rick_hI figured I'd end up doing some sort of dual SLI card setup16:58
jrwrenits called eyevision or something?16:58
jrwrenlemme look it up.16:58
rick_hyea, true, I've been intel only for so long16:58

rick_hhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXJF6UVJfxw lol, there you go17:01
jrwrensadly, it is REALLY hard to find cards with 3 digital out... seems 1 is always analgy :(17:02
rick_hyea17:02
rick_hwhich is whatever for me really17:02
rick_has long as it can show a terminal I can always have one display that's not the best17:02
jrwrenid agree, except it is really annoying when 2 are bright and clear and one is a little dim and blurry17:03

Blazeixand i'm not convinced the whole galaxy nexus thing is as bad as the tech blogs are making it out to be23:50
