woot woot beantown!

Actually, I am a woman too.

u 2 looking for a third member? :)
 
So I just moved from where there was an Ikea 15 min away to where there's no Ikea anywhere. I live down in the Dirty South LOL. Anyways I had a Frederik in my shopping cart and checked it out only to find that shipping is $287!!!!! WTF! The can't imagine it being that expensive to ship since all their stuff is packed like flat. Unless they are shipping from Sweden?


Call and ask them if they ship "Forward Air" you will have to pick it up at your local airport, but their prices are dirt cheap compared to fedex or UPS for large packages. I shipped a 14 foot kayak for only $120
 
:rolleyes:

But yes Boston <3

I was born and raised in Rhode Island, where I still live.

Go Pats, who won today as well! :D

I guess the name Calvin Schiraldi would cause you convulsions, then? (Sorry, HUGE Sox fan) :( Nice desk. I wish I had an Ikea nearby. 5 minutes from Louisville, and we got nothing. Hell, we don't even rank for a Fry's :mad:

I will def try that....I mean for $278 I could drive the 300+ miles to Atlanta and back and still probably save over 100 bucks.
 
This is mine:

My desk is old, but I still keep it because it was a gift from my grandparents with my first PC in 1990 when I was a kid... :D

BTW, i didn't clean anything to take the picture, so it's a little messy... :p
 
Here's my new setup, haven't taken pictures in awhile. Enjoy! :p

Just picked it up tonight for $50.
I need to mess with it, I have the swivel shelve things but I'm not sure
whether or not I want to use them.

Also need to fill up the shelves and do some cable management.

edit: Ignore the paint lol, it was my sisters room before mine.
 
Ya can call me crazy because you are probably right.

Here are a few pictures of my old work area about 2x months ago.
I will take more pictures later. There's are all that I have right now.

I just love getting my hands on new stuff and messing around with it. Over the months
a lot of stuff has built up and I really need to start putting most of this stuff to good use.
I have a few mods planned and a few things to show ya.

:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
Holy SHIT!!!!!, im gonna find out where you live and steal all that from you. jk

But i have one question. Whats your job?
 
I just really like to mess around with computers. That's just the best reason to describe to
describe myself. I mess around with this and that every other week. I just like learning about
parts.

I do want to turn Renner Technology into a computer company one day.
I really want to make computer cases and parts.
I really want to come out with my own designs and ideas.

But ya.... computer parts are starting to sit on the shelves. I really need to start putting them
to good use. Actually all week I have been thinking of mods and cleaning shop. I really have
some stuff I cant wait to share with you!! I think you guys will love some of my ideas ;)


You can really thank DarthBeavis &Ockie & others for really inspiring me to put my
parts to good use and doing some modding.
 
Ok, Renner's addiction is a bit overkill, but still not that bad if he wants to run some shop or service :).

Btw i have one of those IcyDocks, too bad they are noisy (and if you replace fan like my, then even the Noctua 8cm you must run at full speed) and warmer disks are overheating :(. My 4xWD6400AAKS array was around 45C, which is the max i can accept. So hotswap is nice, but not at cost of disk life.

wow..thats absolutely ridiculous how much stuff you have, donate it, sell it, free your garage for what is supposed to be in there..... CARS. I don't feel selfish for complaining about my computer anymore.

unless you run a business building computers. that i might understand.
 
I was gonna post my new setup... i think after his, ill wait a while.. maybe.. 2-3 pages.. lol

amazing stuff you got there!! I kinda wish my house/garage looked like that...
 
I have to say Renner Technology, that is an amazing amount of parts you have.

Good luck on starting the company. :)

Want to share with a broke-jobless 14 year old?
 
Ok so after seeing this and every where else on this forum talking about folding, it sounded pretty important. So, after going to the site and doing all that stuff, I am currently folding! Woohoo, add another one to Team 33!

Is a performance of 4000.00 iters a second pretty good? Thats about my average, except when it will slow down every now and then to like 3000 for a few seconds. Thats with 685/1447/1275
 
Reading on FOLDING now ;)


w1retap Newegg Platinum Membership.

I wish... They just give me discount shipping. I have ordered a lot from them. Just dont
have the size orders to get it cheaper from bigger sellers.
(ideas would be nice on who to talk to)


Empty_Quarter The TJ07 I spot is uber sexy though.
One of the mods to come this month :)


faugusztin Ok, Renner's addiction is a bit overkill, but still not that bad if he wants to run some shop or service :).

Your right, my addiction is a bit overkill. I am in NO WAY here to brag or showoff. I really
want to make that clear. I just want to put my passion and addiction to good use and
make the most of what ever I can from it.

I know what you mean. I really wish it was better.
