How often do I have to repeat this? Grey and raining in the morning, at 14°C. Followed by more greyness and more raining interspersed with grey and dry spells. And one sunny moment, from 11h59 till 12h10.
Shopping. I brought back some interesting hardware. Well, a 10Gig disk and a 500MHz AMD chip are not really interesting. What is however is that I asked the slowest chip and smallest disk he had. I had expected to get a 300MHz AMD and a 2Gig disk or something in that range. So even with the smallest and slowest components on offer you can build a box that is more than adequate for standard office use. I also asked for an AT style main board and some memory. The smallest memory modules available were 32Meg SIMMs but you need two of them pushing the price up over a single 64Meg DIMM.
Once home I noticed I got an ATX main board iso an AT one and I want it for an upgrade of an old AT box. I'll swap it next week.
Later, after dinner and doing the dishes I make an apple pie. This is the first time I make a pie on my own, I used to stand by and lend a hand when my grandmother made them so I remember the basics. Only that was more than 25 years ago.
I do have good kitchen instincts however so the end result is almost a success. The only mistake is the bottom, being too thin. Because I didn't have enough apples I did split up and make one apple pie and one apricot pie. Both delicious so we eat too much.
Adios
