4:52 PM - Our little trip to flint
Yesterday, Caryn and I went to Flint. She had to close a bank account with her mom. We spent about 5 hours with her mom and then visited my mom for awhile. It was rather nice to leave the apartment.
During our travels, we noticed my old boss started a computer store. We decided to stop by. Fred and Ryan were out since it was saturday. We did get a good deal on a gigabit network card though. $15 for a via chipset based card. Its got windows, linux, freebsd and solaris drivers! It also supports 802.11p/q (tagging and priority queues) . I dropped it in the windows server here. Its working very well after I flashed the system bios. The only remaining non-gigabit devices on the network are our airport express, iBooks, NeXTstation, and the two sun machines.
