Custom Nitro

A while back I was driving home from work and I found a huge box of CAT6 cable laying next to the dumpster at a local business. I wasn’t sure if it was supposed to be trash or if someone just sat it there and forgot about it, so I walked in and asked the lady at the front desk. She said that they recently had all of their network and everything rebuilt and that the cable was just left over from the job. There is probably close to 800 feet worth of cable in the box. Being the computer and electronics freak that I am, this absolutely made my day.

I’ve been complaining that the flash memory in my digital camera is too small for about a year now. Last week a friend of mine showed me a website that sells a huge variety of memory cards and memory sticks for very decent prices and I now have a new 4gb memory card in my camera. I can’t believe I waited this long to upgrade from the factory 60mb memory. It’s a whole lot nicer being able to store more than 30 pictures at a time.

I talk on my cell phone my in my vehicle than anywhere else. It seemed like I would have a good connection then would lose connection or connection would get a lot of static or other disruptions on it. I finally took my friends advice and purchased 2 cell phone amplifiers. I bought one for my home and also one for my car. The one for my car is very handy to use. I just plug it into my cigarette lighter and the connection and reception is so much better. I haven’t had one dropped call since I started using it.

I recently purchased a second computer for my home. I already had the internet, but needed to purchase a router to use it on both of my computers. I searched many websites and in stores for one in the price range I wanted to spend and also was good quality. I decided to check out refurbished ones and compare the prices and descriptions to new ones. I found a used cisco router that was very reasonably priced. I purchased it, hooked it up, and it works great. I wonder why so many people spend so much money on new computer accessories such as these, when they can get used ones much cheaper for the same quality and also come with a warranty.

My girlfriend wanted a PS2 for her birthday. I hesitated on buying one at first. I thought the games for it would be very expensive. After comparing prices on the PS2 and also the games, I decided to buy one. It has ended up being one of the best gaming systems I’ve seen. I couldn’t believe the price difference in the cost of games for it, too. You can find them much cheaper than for other systems and also stores have used ones that are very inexpensive to buy. I won’t be buying a PS3 or Xbox 360 anytime soon.

A few people I know, who like myself are into movies can’t stop talking about how great blu-ray and high definition is. Every DVD that I’ve seen on Blu-Ray costs at least $15, no matter if it’s an old movie or a new movie and I just don’t see myself spending that kind of money on old movies yet. I don’t even like spending that much on new releases, I usually wait until I find them cheap on eBay. A prime example of an overpriced Blu-Ray DVD is the Die Hard collection. It costs $110. It’s a 4 movie collection. I’m sorry, but I’ll never spend a hundred and ten dollars on 4 movies. High definition can wait.

I was recently put in charge of ordering a huge batch of fiber optic cables for my office. They are having their whole network rebuilt and using a new internet provider and I guess the old cables were just too out-dated for the new technology. I don’t really fully understand what the difference is between the old system and the new system, but people are talking like this new internet is going to be lightning fast.

I’ve been thinking about buying a new wireless router. My old router has been acting weird lately and sometimes it just disconnects and stops responding out of nowhere until I unplug it and plug it back in. This is getting pretty old. A few times I have been pretty close to throwing this thing out of my window or just smashing it against the wall.

A friend of mine’s company recently picked up a new plasma cutting machine. They do alot of construction and the plasma cutter really comes in handy and allows them to fabricate alot of things out of various materials. Body shops and car factories also use plasma cutters to fabricate different parts of chasis and what not. It really is an interesting device.
