Nah I still check from time to time but things have changed a lot for me since the good ole days.

I'm going to be graduating college soon with a BS in Computer Science and a minor in math. Debating about going to do my masters program or try to find a good job with what I will have.

My core i7 system is still going strong and I have managed to get OS X LION running on my dell XPS M1530 laptop.

I'm still a good two years away from rebuilding my system again. I'm not thinking that Ivy Bridge will be for me. I guess we will wait and see.

Over all I'm not a fan of OS X. I just don't see the point of losing a ton of compatibilty with apps I need to use in order run OS X. OS X just doesn't wow me.

On the other hand I now completely loath my Droid X and wish to replace it with an iphone 4s as soon as possible.

Whats everyone else been up too?

SOSDD. only thing new is I hate my phone and will look into a windows phone next time. Nothing with a little i in front of the word for me thanks.

Glad to hear all is well. Hate to see this forum fade away.

I've graduated with a BS in Computer Science and am working now.
2005, get a job with the BS and then look to having that job pay for your master's degree education! :P

The work laptop is kinda nice, a Lenovo Thinkpad T520 with an i7-2760QM. I'm in the process of making the other parts the same level because 6GB RAM and an HDD is just unacceptable. Upgraded to 16GB RAM on Friday and am waiting for the President's Day sale at Fry's for a 128GB SSD.

Then will see about reimbursement from the company, which could be funny because < $40 for 8GB RAM is totally different from $110 for 16GB hehehe. I don't mind if they don't want to reimburse.

I want to flash my Atrix back to the stock ROM, KINDA. Went to a custom ROM just to have more touch points than 2 (essential for like N64oid and stuff) but it isn't nearly as stable as the stock ROM, despite my choice of that ROM in particular being because it was said to be the most stable of the customs.... thanks internet people. >_> Unfortunately I refuse to try CM7/CM9 because they don't support my phone's fingerprint scanner.
For computers, buying cheaply and often will only leave you constantly in a world of shit.
