My old faithful iPod nano has served me well. Her name is Trinity (given the fact my old desktop was Mr. Anderson. Get it?). My parents gave it to me for Christmas during my senior year of college, and she’s been put through much abuse and commuting since then.
This week during my trip to work, [...]
A couple months back, when I placed an order for my DS flash card, I couldn’t resist checking out what other goodies the site had (I was paying for shipping anyway, after all). And then I discovered… GBA shells. I bought my GBA used, so it was pretty beat up.
So what was another $5 to [...]
So, um, I bought a printer last night. If you know me, you know that I’ve been wanting to, but between various other life obligations I was putting off the purchase. BUT I received an email from work about limited-time Staples discounts (no, it really was; I never see Staples on the list) and had [...]
When I first saw a tablet PC years ago, I may have drooled a little. It was like nothing I had ever seen—you flip the screen around and can actually write on it (well, with a stylus, but the concept is still there). And at the time, I said “I’d get one if Apple did [...]

I’m a nerd without a computer. [...]
Some questions.

This is Mr. Anderson:
(not me. The other party in the photo.)
This photograph was taken moments after he came back to life, fully installed with OSX Leopard. He was shiny and new again. I obsessed over iPhoto ‘09, reorganized my files after an archive & install, and nearly drooled over how crisp and pretty the graphics [...]
I like things. But I'm weird about it. I ramble about my addictions. I go on for a week about new RAM, listen to the same album over & over for a solid month, or buy a stack of new books when I have two shelves of literature I haven't yet read.
I have also edited that previous paragraph thrice. And I just used the word "thrice" in standard conversation. Yeah.
