[FairfieldLife] Fun with computers

[Bhairitu]

After dragging my feet I finally ran over to Fry's yesterday after noon 
and emerged with a shopping cart full of computer components.  I now 
have a new Ubuntu 64-bit machine running 3 cores, with 4 GB of memory 
and a 1 TB drive.  Total cost: $357 including tax.  Given that it's been 
about a year since I bought an Acer 64-bit Windows 7 machine the AMD CPU 
cores are even faster (over 3 Ghz).  The fun part was moving the old 
home directory over.  Ubuntu runs very fast this way.
