It's been a long time since I posted any desktop screen shots on my site, so without further ado, here is my KDE system. I'll post my Openbox system tomorrow as that machine is currently turned off.

KDE turns 15 years old

KDE officially turned 15 years old today. I remember first using it in late 1998 with the release of 1.0 and it really has come a long way since then.

I wanted to take a moment to congratulate KDE and thank all the people who have contributed their time and code to help shape it into what it is today. If anyone is interested, you can read the original announcement from 1996 that was posted on Usenet.

Virtual Infusion Community: 2004-2011

After nearly seven years of operation I made the decision to close Virtual Infusion, my general discussion community, and redirect the domain to my personal site.

I had a blast running the Virtual Infusion community, but as with life everything must one day come to an end. It was nice being able to have a place meet all of you and share our common interests over the years.

It was inevitable that our members would eventually move on to newer and greater things. I wish you all the best.

TL;DR: Virtual Infusion.. So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish.

A side order of Commodore

I met someone who wanted to get rid of their old computer equipment and as someone who loves old computers I just had to see what they were offering.

To make a long story short I ended up with something much better than I ever expected. I brought home a complete Commodore system which consisted of a Commodore 128, a Commodore 1571 Disk Drive, and a Commodore MPS1000 Dot Matrix Printer. Everything came complete in excellent condition along with their original packing materials and boxes.

I was also given two Epyx 500XJ joysticks, two standard Atari joysticks, and extra cartridge ribbons for the printer as well.

When I get some free time I am definitely going to set the system up somewhere and have a blast with it.

I was bored so I took a few pictures of my Amiga hardware.
This one is simply a close-up shot that I took of my Amiga 1000.

Moparx.com and Linux Infusion have been merged

Since I was upgrading to Drupal 7 and having to play in the database anyway to get my image nodes working again I decided to merge Linux Infusion into my current site.

Everything should be working perfectly, but if anyone notices anything odd let me know.

I absolutely love this shot.

I bought a new camera and thought that my Apple Newton Messagepad 2100 would make an excellent subject.
