ORIGINAL: pyroaquatic Well Lucky... I am a neat freak.... AND a pack rat. Figure that one out... most of my things are in Containers (at one time I had more containers than things to put them in.) and they are HEAVY. I pack efficiently. A second pc? I like the magnets from the inside of the hard drives.... and those reflective discs. Some of them have ferrofluid... no? :D As to how my life is doing... I would check out the I Hate it when.... thread. Things are compounding quite nastily around here. :c Yeah, I've been wanting to build a second pc to act as a file/media server. It's one of the many things I've wanted to do to increase my IT "value", and make me more sellable in the job market. I've been tempted to toy around with Linux for the file/media server, and Win Server 2003/08 to learn about AD but haven't really had the time (not to mention money) to do so. I think that practically all harddrives have some amount of FFL in it (SS drives have been the only exception to this rule) A year or two ago, my HD based mp3 player died (creative zen micro) and I took the harddrive apart. Looked pretty interesting, like a miniature turntable. I ended up buying a Lego set, and did a "rave scene" type deal, using the HD in there to mimic turntables. Heh. One thing I've found EXTREMELY useful, is a tacklebox. No lie. I dabble in electronic circuitry, and I have a boatload of LED's, resistors, pots, breadboards, prototyping boards, etc laying around. Tackleboxes are absolutely superb for keeping little things like those organized. Get yourself a Dyno labeler, slap some labels on the front, and wham. You're golden. If it's one of the rectangular tackleboxes, with the two shelves that raise/lower when you close the lid, I usually keep stuff like my soldering iron, desolderin braid, bigger (4x6 inch +) bread/prototyping boards down on the bottom, and the smaller, precut ones up top. Works like a charm.
