Introducing Quackers!

[twincityhacker]

Well, it took six months, but I am finally on the computer that my sister gave me last July.

It's name? Someone apparenlty named it "Quakers." Thus, the box's name is Quakers, 'till Motherboard death and dismantling for parts.

The AV card doesn't work, and for some reason it has a rather small memory, but it does have a CD burner and My sister recomends getting a DVD burner for it.

But I can screw around with it a little bit to make it work better, even though running a graphics program is straight out since the monitor is older than the desktop, and we got the desktop in December 1995.

Hell, the monitor has been dropped down the stairs, and it still works fine. How many computers can you say that of (though the box we had at the time also made the trip down the stairs too).

Hm. My oldoldold computer has gone up the stairs, but I was carrying it. Of course, for how much it sucks, there were many-a time I wanted to kick down the stairs. Or out a window. Or in front of a moving train.

In fact, there have been many times I've wanted to do the exact same thing to this one (which has, a coinidentally enough, also been carried upstairs by me).

Oh, I wasn't fustrated at the computer at the time, so I just thought it was kinda funny. Mostly since the only thing I did with the computer was use paint and play "Bill and Ted's Excelent Adventure" and "When in American History is Camern Sangiago"

Hm. This could explain why I'm a history geek though.
