The Hobo Camp Fire Is going well #VI.. Stop In!!!

[Running Bear]

If you've been keeping up with my computer rebuilds you know that I recently got two Mitac disk drives. One of these worked right out of the box when I got it but the other one needed work. I replaced the chassis in it with an Apple Shugart chassis. Externally the drives are identical and I want to know which drive has the Shugart mechanism at a glance. The solution was very simple. I'll give you three guesses which drive it is but you only need one.



I'll be going back to Oakdale Monday morning to have the operation done and hopefully everything will go well. I'll likely be spending a few days there afterward before being allowed to return to Leesville. Over the weekend I'll be moving some of this computer equipment to my fathers place so I can have something there to work on while I'm living there. I don't want to be bored the death after all. The only computer down there is one I built shortly after hurricane Rita flattened this part of the state in 2005. I put it there so my mother could use it in her genealogy work. I use it once in a while to get online sometimes and my father attempts to use it when he feels he needs to fry his brain. He's usually doing good to turn it on. Besides moving the computer stuff I also need to move my tools and diagnostic equipment. So I think I'm going to be a little busy this weekend. I probably need to mow the grass tomorrow too.

Well that's all for now. See y'all tomorrow.
