6/28/2006 Spider-Man
This will be a short and sweet post not a whole lot here. There is a new trailer for the
upcoming Spider-Man 3 movie and it looks like this next movie will be awsome. Check it out
here at IGN.com.
And that is all I am going to post because I am tired, have a headache and have a long couple
days ahead of me with work.

6/19/2006 Microsoft Fights Back
Microsoft won't admit it, but they are threatened by the search engine giant, Google. Maybe not
the way Wal-Mart scares Mom and Dad shops when it comes to a small town, but never the less
Google has taken a lot of Microsoft employees as well as dominates the MSN search engine. The
latest hit that has directly affected the MSN side of Microsoft along with every single e-mail
provider like Yahoo! is Google's GMail. GMail has a constantly growing e-mail capacity with a
current amount of 2736 MB, now built in GMail Talk allowing instant messaging built in with the
e-mail, and a search function that can search for a paticular e-mail or right into Googles very
own search. This is one stop shopping, well... minus the shopping.
So Microsoft needs to make their e-mail worth while, so what do they do? Rename it and redesign
it. Well it's not quite that simple, but that's the basics. I still have the @hotmail.com
for my e-mail, but it's now called the Windows Live Mail and is still in Beta. It has some
really cool features that I like and a few standard ones that I didn't like but I was able
to actually fix the problem due to it's customization. I would comment about how much disk
space I get with it, but it doesn't say anywhere that I have found. I have made a news page,
which includes screen shots, that you can check out by going to the Windows page (click on the Window's logo) or by clicking
the following, Windows Live Mail.

6/15/2006 Talk About Board
So the other night I decided to start downloading SuSE 10.1 to install on my server and while
that was going to start building the box. Well little did I know I would be doing that literally
(that will make more sense in a second). So I grabed the case I was going to use which was a old
HP case that was once my Dad's, but it turned out to be a micro-ATX case and my motherboard is a
ATX so it was way to big. Well I am very impatient and so I began looking around my house, the
only thing I could find was a cardboard box that once held the case I used to build my Dad's new
computer. So I began to cutting this cardboard box in order to temporarily be used as my case
until I go buy one. But I do have pictures of before and after, it is my "Xtreme Ghetto Box."
Click here to see all the pictures I am putting up and
click on any of them to see a larger image. Oh and yeah, it does boot.
Does it work well? Am I going to keep it this way? No. This was just a temp solution to a not
so big of a problem, but it's funny looking and was fun to build. People have made some
pretty cool cases though out of weird stuff like a brief case and are a lot more stable then
this thing.
When you speak to me, treat me like a king. Because you know where I'm coming from,
and I'm about to come undone. I'm on a mission honey give me some love. - Handsome Devil

6/12/2006 Setting Everything Up
I am starting to copy all of my CD's over to mp3's to put onto my Linux server I will be
setting up soon so I can stream all sorts of multimedia throughout my house. I would have
it done but I have been so busy if you didn't guess that from my lack of updates here at the
site. Just go look at any of the pages like the XBox or DS, the featured games are pretty old.
But I am hoping to be able to squeeze a little bit of time into the site everyday (wishful thinking).
I haven't signed onto XBox Live except for tonight to get the update and to upload my scores.
The coolest thing I noticed first thing was when I jumped over to the settings and there
was a Video Setup, then in the chat option there is a video chat. So I am excited about that.
I have been playing around with my new Media Center Edition and there are some things I really
like about it, and there are some things about it like the functionality of the Media Center
that I think they need to work on. That will actually be one of my updates though and will
include screenshots, but I would still like to play with it more to get a better feel.
That is all for tonight, I have a very important day tomorrow, I have to present infront of
a lot of important people in the state of Colorado, so I need some beauty sleep or something.
I want to conquer the world. Give all the idiots a brand new religion. Put an end
to poverty, uncleanliness and toil. Promote equality in all my decisions. - Bad Religion
