The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!

Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Journey to the Cross-roads

The Two Towers Edition

Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)

Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

The problem is that I expect them to work. Which is why I hate Windoze machines. Give me a UNIX box or a Mac any day.

Well...at least on this campus...the MACs are a much bigger pain in the rear. But I guess it depends on what you do with them.

Thanks for the soup Ruthy! Hullo Good morning!

My pleasure! Like I said, I wish I was there to lend you a hand with the ponies and get some real soup made.

Oh and I'm still laughing at the "need sleepy!" wav!

It sounds like "No towels, need sleepy!"

I'd have to try and guess what movie it's from to figure out the context.

It's so funny, that "Please go away for the love of God!" Someone has hit that feeling right on the head!

I have a couple of spare HD's in my PC and I thought I might try running Linux on one of them.

Well, since you have the spares you can always give it a try and see if you like it. Just keep in mind that there are better unix variants out there.

These days, when I've been so sleep deprived, this wav suits me just fine. I should have it queued up and just hit play when the kids start calling!

But I guess it depends on what you do with them.

It also depends on who you have admin'ing them. Often it's a bunch of PCphiles who don't give a hoot about maintaining them- so they get ignored and fall out of date. It's a shame really.

Um...I'm maintaining 'em. And admittedly I don't know all that much about them, but we do keep 'em up to date. I still don't like them. Personal prefence, I guess!

Irix (on SGI machines) or Solaris (Sun Microsystems), but I think you'll have to buy the machine- rather pricey.
