The other day i had a bunch of software and other stuff seized and put in storage in our other house 25kms down the road. Oh well, i can still visit it with a PowerBook... -------------------------- "I keep my friends close, but I keep my enemies closer" - Unkown Warrior maclover5 68k Macintosh Liberation Army Number of 68ks Liberated: 6

catsdorule Senior Member Canada 1627 Posts	Posted - 01 Oct 2002 : 09:57:45 Ooo I will ask, how do you sleep in there? Or is it a really big room? -Danny Forum: http://www24.brinkster.com/catsdorule1/ "Windows(win-doze): A 32-bit extension to a 16-bit graphical shell of an 8-bit operating system originally coded for a 4-bit processor by a two-bit company that can't stand one bit of competition."
~Coxy Leader, Tactical Ops Unit Australia 2822 Posts	Posted - 01 Oct 2002 : 18:09:10 Danny: it's about 4 metres by 4 metres, I'm not sure if it's big or small or average by US standards... There's a bed parallel to the desk with the 7200 and the printers on it, and my bro's bed is against the wall with the Jaguar poster and the parrot puzzle. maclover5: my parents have all but given up, and only utter a few sighs when they see me cart something in (the small minority that they actually see me with...) Hopefully your parents will too, shortly. ~Coxy - Leader, Tactical Operations Unit Mayor of NuBus City v3.0
maclover5 LC Doctor/Hot Rodder Australia 5830 Posts	Posted - 03 Oct 2002 : 23:18:23 Cool! My parents will probably never give up, but the good thing is, that if the Shop gives me something for free, my parents have no choice but to let me accept it, because by the time I get it home, its usually too late. -------------------------- "I keep my friends close, but I keep my enemies closer" - Unkown Warrior maclover5 68k Macintosh Liberation Army Number of 68ks Liberated: 6
Kyusaku Natsume Starting Member USA 24 Posts	Posted - 03 Oct 2002 : 23:58:44 4x4 metres sounds about the size of my room. Definately cramped if you're sharing with someone(even without all the stuff) but not too bad. The key is storing things vertically, there's lots of room that way.

At work, we've got a new manager who acts by the book too much. Now, there's a stupid rule somewhere saying that boxes stacked on top of shelving units can be only 2 high, whether the boxes are 3 foot or 5 inches high, only 2 high, no exceptions. So, these days, everything is stacked vertically, saves room. ~Coxy - Leader, Tactical Operations Unit Mayor of NuBus City v3.0

RIGHT WHEN SCIENCE FAIR STUFF WAS DUE, so I couldn't hand it in, so I had to wing it and redo everything from memory, and I go an absolutely pathetic mark.) blueberry clamshell Ibook (it was nice... I got it because it was cheap, it was my birthday soon, and my 7500 was dead.) beige G3 AIO (I traded it for my Ibook. hey! I like PCI slots, all the peripherals I have are ether SCSI or serial, and the specs were reeeeeally good! all it needs now is a G4 and a faster burner... MUAHAHA!) mac portables (got lucky at an online store. both for 30$ CAD, but the shipping was like 40$... one is dead, the other is teetering. one has been sent off allready, the other is still waiting to go to it's new home.) mac II (my big brother's ex was tossing this because the display no longer worked (!!!) it had 5MB ram, and the standard 40MB HD. it's gonna be the server for my vacation pictures as soon as I plopp an '030 mobo in) mac IIcx (see... topic.asp.TOPIC_ID=2625.html\) powerbook 170 (I got it (along with a whole pile of other stuff) in trade for my USB/FireWire card it's a great 'Lil lappy) powerbook 180 (I got this one from clown boy (yes. your stuff is on it's way to your side of the contanent) that's about it so far. I dragged that out WAY too long. I still hate my brother for the SE/30 incedent. THnX "ahhhhh... all done!"

Slomac636 Junior Member USA 103 Posts	Posted - 09 Oct 2002 : 07:47:05 And I thought I had a lot of stuff!! I have commandeered the basement and for my frequent trips to Goodwill, etc.. I just head straight to the basement with my latest find. Usually the wife is clueless, usually I say until she comes down here and sees what I'm up to. She keeps asking when I'm going to get rid of some of this stuff, I keep telling her I have already ;-P that usually works for a few weeks. Unfortunately, work is going to keep me away for a time and I won't be able to monitor what she's doing with my stuff, I am concerned about that.
