It's March Already!

I really really meant to post something sooner, but came down with that icky flu, then bronchitis.
Anyway, my lovely old server that I had crafted from cast off parts finally bit the dust. The power unit went out and being as it was an old Compaq SP750 with Xeon PentIII dual CPU's it was not the easiest thing to find a PSU for. It has 2 motherboard connects one a ten and one a twenty. The only PSU I could find was $350 so I just gave up and built my first new computer from scratch. I am very pleased with it.
I realize that there are many techies out there who think nothing of this leap but I came to the game late and at 51 years old I am the oldest "Tech Diva" I know.
At my job at Sno-Isle we are starting to take the Web 2.0 class. It is looking like it will be pretty simple, which translates to a lot of fun for me since I already do most of the basics. It means I will be able to play around a lot.
If you have not seen it yet check out VodPod, it the vein of youtube, but members can save much larger files and it has a very clean look and feel. I am encouraging my son Seth to try it out for some of his music and videos that he creates.
I better get back to the "real world" Hugs, fellow travelers and more later.
