[18:27] <netritious> hey wrst, hey Juzzy
[18:28] <Unit193> Howdy.
[18:28] <netritious> how's it going Unit193?
[18:28] <Unit193> I'm alive, but back home.  You?
[18:29] <wrst> netritious: have a good wekeend
[18:29] <wrst> oh and Unit193 ^^ ?
[18:29] <Unit193> wrst: More than good, yourself?
[18:30] <wrst> pretty good
[18:30] <netritious> Unit193: listening to some AC/DC on shuffle
[18:30] <wrst> back at work...
[18:30] <netritious> wrst
[18:31] <netritious> wrst: it was great
[18:32] <wrst> I would like to do it again this weekend :)
[18:32] <netritious> that would just be to much fun
[18:33] <wrst> ha ha I would like to try and see :)
[18:33] <netritious> :)
[18:40] <netritious> wow SSDs have gotten cheap(er)
[18:41]  * wrst wishes netritious had not brought that to his attention
[18:42] <netritious> around the $0.50 per gigabyte
[18:45] <wrst> getting much much better
[18:45] <wrst> I'm guessing eventually that will be the way even for large storage solutions?
[18:47] <netritious> SSD? IDK. I don't think mechanical HDDs are going anywhere soon
[18:49] <netritious> I guess it just depends on who is in charge of the IT budget
[18:49] <netritious> how much stoarge do you need versus how much money can you spend
[18:55] <netritious> wrst are you looking to upgrade?
[18:58] <wrst> netritious: no I'm not I have a SSD in my laptop and a spinner for storage
[18:58] <wrst> but more speed is always better :)
[18:58] <netritious> ah I'm upgrading my laptop from spinner to ssd
[18:59] <wrst> I replaced the optical drive with the old 640GB spinner and put a 120GB SSD in place of the spinner
[18:59] <wrst> so the optical drive is out for me
[19:00] <netritious> only SATAII on my laptop interface and drive is SATAIII, but whatever...beats spinner any day
[19:00] <netritious> that's a cool setup wrst
[19:00] <wrst> on an older laptop but works well
[19:00] <netritious> hm wonder if I can do that
[19:00] <wrst> I'm sata II also
[19:01] <wrst> they sale those adpaters as long as it is a SATA optical drive
[19:02] <netritious> mine isn't new... refurb Dell E6410 but I like it
[19:02] <wrst> mine is a $499 special asus from about 3 or 4 years ago :)
[19:02] <wrst> I'm really thinking I might go with a macbook next time
[19:03] <netritious> all my laptops were older than that. sold or gave them away and now have 3x E6410 for <$800
[19:04] <wrst> nice, I'm not seeing enough advances really that warrants buying tcomputer parts very often
[19:05] <netritious> I am once again, after a fifteen year hiatus, trying to move my desktop to a notebook :S
[19:06] <wrst> ha ha
[19:06] <wrst> I have no desktop any more
[19:06] <wrst> well I have my old desktop running freenas
[19:08] <netritious> I'm just tired of being tied to my desk, but I think the laptop with some upgrades will do ok as a replacement.
[19:11] <netritious> will also end up with spare parts for the other two laptops, and if my laptop dies, I can just move my ram and HDD.. unless it's the RAM or HDD that dies lol
[19:13] <netritious> with any luck this will be here today...  http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148821
[19:15] <netritious> this is what sold me.... power consumption when active? 0.15W
[19:16] <wrst> sweet
[19:16] <wrst> very nice
[19:17] <netritious> that and upgrading ram to 8GB, and will try to install qubes first. will see what happens from there.
[19:18] <wrst> I'm running 8GB of ram but a much smaller ssd but its very nice
[19:18] <netritious> I like VM's, and a healthy dose of snapshots...on my desktop with 256GB SSD it's fast, but to small
[19:26] <netritious> speak of the angel... http://imgur.com/uW1RUzO
[19:27] <wrst> sweet
[19:27] <wrst> very nice
[19:28]  * wrst suspects netritious is about to leave for a while
[19:52] <netritious> running system diag now
[20:03] <wrst> sweet
