I'm just more comfortable with FreeBSD. I moved to OpenSolaris just for ZFS. There's no reason I need to switch, it's just preference. I'm not doing anything crazy with it so I sounds like I'll be ok.

I'm planning on moving my OpenSolaris based ZFS box to FreeBSD and I want to keep my 6 disk raidz2 array intact during the move. I've confirmed that the pool format, 14, is supported by FreeBSD. I did a very quick dry run in VirtualBox exporting an array from OpenSolaris and importing it into...

Here's another random bird outside my apartment building. I've been busy so I haven't gotten to use it for anything real yet, but I'm loving my new 70-200mm f/4L IS. I also downloaded the trial for Lightroom and it's the closest I've used yet for what I'm looking for when it comes to managing...

I finally got to get outside with my new 70-200mm f/4L IS for a little bit. This was the best of my short walk.

Hot damn! It arrived. My Xsi feels like a toy on the end of it :) It was overcast and kind of late when I got back from work so I haven't really gotten to use it yet but I like the feel of it.

Translation: I just ordered a Canon 70-200mm f/4L IS :eek: I'm strictly a hobbyist with my Rebel XSI but I also have the itch. It will compliment my kit 18-55mm and the ever popular 50mm f/1.8. I'm hoping I can find a free weekend after it comes and put it to good use. Has anyone else...

It's actually the episode where they find Fry's dog and Bender is a magician. Both good. Thanks. It's just a hobby for me so I have to drool over the good stuff but this one has served me well.

ahahaha! nice catch. my brain not always communicate right ways ;)

:eek: I like to keep my desk clean, but pretty much everything out of frame is an embarrassing disaster :)

I just got a Dell U2410 and so far I'm loving it. It kind of makes my trusty 2005fpw look like crap in comparison and I'm thinking about getting a 2nd. You know, just to balance things out :p You can see my year old 12TB zfs server sticking its head out on the left, I've been meaning to...

Got my 2600k in flight :) It'll be replacing my trusty q6600. Now I just have to put in some overtime to fill that hole in my bank account.

Pro even! I got a new 13" unibody MBP on thursday. It's actually an early birthday present from my awesome girlfriend, and my first Mac. This is to replace my late 2001 Dell laptop:eek: I've built several desktops in between, but figured it was time for a little mobile lovin'. I don't know if...

I'd never intended on admin'ing it from the web interface, it's just the first thing I checked to make sure it was up. I'm already a computer geek so I know how quickly you can accumulate equipment, my apartment is stuffed :D Thanks for the tips though

Just picked up a WS-C2924C-XL-A surplus from the company I work for. Luckily it looks like it was left in a working config, i.e. I didn't have to dig around and change anything for it to act like a regular consumer switch. Now I get to mess with it :p I've used IOS once years ago, so it'll take...

I had already held it and played with it a bit. Yesterday I decided to buy it. I put up some of the pics I took yesterday and today on flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/malister/sets/72157606286419688/ I already see how I could benefit from different lenses, but the increased flexibility...
