Hai! I is calling you from my new bling bling putta (which I has been using for long time now but too lazy to blog). I will eventually take a photo of it but for now cannot be bothered. Suffice to say in appearance it looks like this: link to galaxy case image but the clear side wall blue LED fan has been replaced with the Akasa rainbow LED fan I mentioned probably in Trigger part 1 or somink. As I has possibly mentioned, I did not buy it for it’s bling bling-ness (the LED lit bubble tubes are devine, I’m sure) but I rather like it’s overt display of cheap colour. I did good things too – like the fans are proper organised with a 12cm Akasa silent exhaust, the LED rainbow blasting the mobo and an additional silent Akasa 8cm behind the front panel acting as inlet for the harddrive (as I figured the LED fan in the middle of the side would benefit from a nudge over the hdd. I love it – I pieced it together, stuck the vista OS into the new cd drive (which sounds a little like I have a set of dwarf miners* living under my desk, but hey, it is a £20 LG) and bada-bling-bada-boom, I’m done. New swish PC. 500GB HDD, 2GB memory (with another 2GB in a box if I feel like sticking it in), 1GB NVidia graphics, 2.5GHz dual core Intel Pentium processor, 19inch widescreen, 22x (LG) DVD-RW – lurvely.
Currently I am reliving my addicition to budget games, which is perhaps fueling my purchasing of their modern versions – i.e. loving Settlers 3 (though currently in a slow battle with the Egyptians which is taking bloody ages) and thus what to buy Settlers 4 and/or Settlers: Rise of the Empire, mostly because they have gorgeous graphics. Saw a game of the genre they** call “managerial” which had amazing graphics of a city scape fading in to the backrgound while I was trawelling forums trying to get Dungeon Keeper II to work, but can’t remember what it was called… Ah! My History saves me – Age of Empires III – check this out – amazering. *wants*
Slightly sozzled, was trying to read this about the whole “Five golden rings” actually being about ring-necked pheasants and finding the whole pheasant-peasant dicotomy a problem…
I keep writing like a lolcat.
Bai!
*miners than mine for dwarf – an elusive substance, or so I am told. Comes in red and snow white forms, with the latter found in clusters of 7 while the former is found on it’s own, rarely near centres of human civilisation.
