Yesterday, I picked up a copy of IBM OS/2 Warp V3 at Goodwill. Mint in box never used all sealed and warped like it was fresh from the factory; that was in 1994. I have no idea why it was like that or why nobody had used it but I picked it up because it was only $5. The funny thing was that wasn’t even looking for it. I had herd of this and have wanted to use it for some time, but I had never found a copy except for eBay. I have an old Compaq Armada 4120 that was running Windows 95, but I didn’t want to use that if I didn’t have to. I ended up having to but that’s not a big deal. I tired to put it on an Hp I had but it was too new for the OS. The Armada has a Pentium at 160MHz and 16MB of RAM, with a 1gb hard drive. I am not having an easy time installing I keep getting some errors when i try to install but I am getting somewhere (I hope). But at any rate I think its going to be fun to use. The package came with a “Bonus Pack” which comes with some word processing software from IBM. I have some pictures below. ENJOY!

I recently decided to get a web cam. Boy, was I not happy with it! I got the LifeCam Cinema but it was a waste of money. So I returned it and got a one terabyte hard drive from Western Digital. The Caviar Black series hard drive are supposed to be the best in the line of WD’s hard drives, and they are supposed to have the best performance… this drive kicks butt! It was one heck of an install (video coming soon), but it is now serving as my storage drive for backups and photos.
It will give me plenty of room to grow, and if my hard drive dies I can use this one! -

An interesting piece of technology that I don’t think is necessary is the digital price tag (pictured). Do we need to spend money on this or is this just an unnecessary piece of technology? Will this better my shopping
experience? I don’t think so. But it is a cool idea. I can’t find much information on them, and I don’t even know how they work, but I do thin their kind of cool.UPDATE:
I found an article!
