Domino Effect
PreZ upgraded the motherboard, CPU and RAM in my computer. And then found out that certain things I already had don't work so well with it. So now I have a new harddisk, power supply and videocard on order too.
It was interesting being told earlier in the week "oh, I'm upgrading your computer".. oh-kay. But he needs to upgrade a bunch of other systems too, so the parts from mine get cannibalised into those machines, and I get a much faster computer. It'll be the first real upgrade in about 3 years, additional RAM and various hardware snafus from a year or two back notwithstanding.
With the various parts already arriving, as well as other non-computer orders we've been placing lately, the computer room is total chaos. Boxes and packing material everywhere. Every time you think you're getting the place organised, there's new stuff accumulating. I think it breeds like rabbits when we're not looking, it's the only explanation I can think of.
Life with a geek ;)

So we'll be forced to upgrade that whole computer... hooray for hardware incompatibilities!
