Activating the wayback machine in 5... 4... 3...

Back on April 5th, I extolled the virtues of Cosmos and its DVD boxed set, and confirmed my lusting and coveting for it. And then, for several months, I forgot about it...

...until it was waiting for me under the tree at my parents' house!! Needless to say, I did the geeky happy dance of joy, and rubbed it on my belly in an attempt to absorb its knowledge through Cosmosis. :)

I also got an awesome DBZ hoodie with an amazingly-well-embroidered Goku on the front, and one of those little mini RC cars that are all the rage. Dad got one too, on a separate frequency, so we shall have to race some time.

(no subject)

Went out this morning with my Best Buy gift card (many uber-thanks to the Casa crew!!!) and picked up a new video card. Nothing fancy - just a Radeon 7500 - but it passes all the tests so far...

Warcraft III? Check.
Unreal Tournament? Check.
UT2003 Demo? Check.

And the final test?

Neverwinter Nights? Well, after tracking down the right driver version (which is not the newest driver), check!!

HUZZAH! I have waited since July to play this game, and now I can!

And as a side note, anyone need a Voodoo 5 5500 AGP? :)
