My desktop is dead. Long live my desktop!

So over the weekend my long suffering desktop, The Precious, shuffled off to Mount Doom. Luckily I've been able to save most of the stuff off my hard drives (with the notable exception of my Star Wars folder, which had some ten years of fandom stored in it, sigh) so the loss isn't too profound

Well, at least I can give you High-Def anime now :D

Yay! The only problem with that being that I'll have to watch it on my desktop instead of my nice big TV, but oh well. I'll take it. :)

Seriously, I have got to figure out what kind of vendetta my laptop has against mkv files one of these days and why.

Alas, if only you had something to stream to like we have at our place, but of course that would require spending even more money on a second computer just for TV-watching purposes, and I doubt you want to do that.

Have Eric look at it your laptop sometime. He got the high-def files working on Alex's computer, he might be able to work with yours as well.

Maybe I'll come over a little early on a Sunday sometime and haul it with me. Thanks!

Speaking of Sundays, I'll probably won't be able to get those Utena remasters from you for another couple weeks now. I don't think I' have enough space left on my external to fit them until the new desktop arrives.

Allrighty, I'm sure they won't disappear anywhere.

I know how you feel about lack of space, though. I'm having to look into getting a second 1TB external pretty soon. Luckily they've about halved in price since I bought the first one.
