I'll create an 'entry' on my 'computers' page when I get the chance.<br /><br />The new PC draws only about 40 watts, instead of about 90 watts for the old one, so I am not as worried about power consumption issues as I was before.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3440831696822795242-3303541199220822188?l=darethehair.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Darehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04306681755745364128noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3440831696822795242.post-56776407608981533742008-11-21T17:35:00.002-06:002008-11-21T17:37:50.869-06:00In case anyone hasn't noticed, most of my personal website is down at the moment...my computer power supply seems to have died! I have researched and purchased the parts for a new 'cheap' computer, and I am a bit nervous trying to assemble one completely 'from scratch' for the first time.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3440831696822795242-5677640760898153374?l=darethehair.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Darehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04306681755745364128noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3440831696822795242.post-90295811557499502852008-07-09T12:46:00.000-05:002008-07-09T12:47:02.338-05:00Pippin, one of my two cat buddies, died today. I will attempt to create a simple 'tribute' web page for him, just like I did for my first cat, Frodo. Merry, my remaining cat, seems OK so far, but I think he senses that Pippin is 'missing'...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3440831696822795242-9029581155749950285?l=darethehair.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Darehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04306681755745364128noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3440831696822795242.post-63052436563882949642008-07-02T14:35:00.001-05:002008-07-02T14:36:57.795-05:00I decided that 'Picasa Web Album' would be a place that I could use to host my 'Best of Dare' photos, rather than on my own computer:<br /><br />http://picasaweb.google.com/darethehair<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3440831696822795242-6305243656388294964?l=darethehair.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Darehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04306681755745364128noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3440831696822795242.post-75947763522520335532008-04-04T11:51:00.002-05:002008-04-04T11:52:30.035-05:00Got back from an overnight trip to Morden today. Heard on the radio that gas prices had risen to $1.22/litre in Winnipeg (not good news).<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3440831696822795242-7594776352252033553?l=darethehair.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Darehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04306681755745364128noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3440831696822795242.post-16858437396560120982008-03-26T17:14:00.000-05:002008-03-26T17:16:36.072-05:00I decided to see what all this 'blogging' stuff was about, and found out that Google had a blogging facility.
