I shut mine down last night. I am done for now. Can't justify the extra $40+ to the power bill every month anymore. Trying to save up as much cash as possible in 2004. Being I will be traveling most of the year for work I have no need for many of the other accessive bills like cable TV, regular phone (got a cell phone), maybe even dropping the cable internet. That would save over $130 a month for dropping those three. Add another $40 for saving on the power bill and that is $170. X12months = $2,040 for the year. Damn, thats almost an entire months pay for me. Might even move to a cheaper apartment and save another $100. Time to get priorites in line. Me nore my daughter are getting any younger. Time to start thinking about the future more. Also means fewer expensive hobbies like water blocks making. I spent almost $500 this year building blocks. Got a lot of fat to trim....

We will miss your presence here also...

But remenber one thing: do not cut in everithing you like, or your life will become quite boring.
It is expensive, everithing is, but its the hobbys that make life more bright, and more valuable.

No, no. you misunderstand. You are supposed to say "We can never beat TGC. We bow down to your superior team". Not "adding about 20 2.6Ghz machines"

Why not pick a obtainable goal?
You know that we will be on the 3rd place
The best you can hope for is number 4

Awful big talk from a team that's doing nothing but staring at our backsides.

No offense, but when we asked for a place with a view, it wasn't this we meant.

I re-fired up a couple comps. Getting cold in the comp room. Better to warm it up crunching D.F. than turing on the heater.
