forty miles on the panama canal
Man oh man. Today is a sad day in the realm of my entertainment center. My PS2 is FUBAR. It fell from it's perch beside my television a few days ago and I hadn't noticed anything ill with it. Yet, today when I was about to put in Kingdom Hearts 2, I realized that the DVD tray was jutting out, and the system wasn't receiving power.
Fuck.
Now I'm gonna have to be without any Playstation games until I get a PS3 sometime in the Spring or Summer. I can't get it now, because I'm still too busy working on building my computers.

Speaking of the computers, I have to purchase a new PCI-E video card and a CPU cooling fan, and then I'll be set with this computer. The new motherboard and processor are on their way from Newegg.com. I think I'm gonna wait until I get the entire deal pieced together before I invest in an OS. I'll probably end up using my discount on a nice copy of Vista.
Shit left to get:
((FOR THE COMPUTERS))
AMD Dual Core Processor
AMD Compatible motherboard
AM2 CPU cooler
LGA 775 CPU Cooler
Two PCI-Express Nvidia video cards (one for each system)
Three SATA high capacity Hard Drives
Two DVD +/- writers
Two All-in-one flash card readers
Two nice Sound Cards
500 W Power Supply Unit
Wacom Intuos3 Tablet
Two sets of Wireless Keyboards/Mice
Wacom Cintiq 21 (A tablet monitor) [a whopping $2500]
and maybe a printer...
((FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT CENTER))
An Audio tower
Playstation 3
Nintendo Wii
Four (more or less) wall mountable shelving units for CDs/DVDs/Books/etc.
An HD Set-top Box for my TV
Component Switcher
A 5.1 surround audio system
Overall: I have way too much shit to buy. I'll be done by the end of the year with the whole of this list though. I have to be, because I won't be able to afford all of this once I'm out on my own. Everything I can't get a major discount on at work, I'll get through newegg or some other site. Fun.

I'm getting back into sketching finally. I hope to get a lot of updates onto the site before too long.
Until next time, kids.
