Hardware fun

Sometime this week, I'll be upgrading my Toshiba laptop from a 20GB hard drive to a 60GB hard drive. Laptop drives are ridiculously expensive, but I couldn't stand the 20-gigger anymore. I also bought a conversion kit for the 20GB drive... probably plop it into an older computer or something. Funny how 20GB doesn't seem like that much space anymore. My first computer's hard drive was a whopping 212MB and I was really psyched about getting a 2.5GB hard drive when I bought my next computer.

Also picked up a wireless card for my Zaurus. I hope to put that thing to better use. I bought it about a year ago, haven't been making much use of it.

Sometime in the near future, I also want to upgrade my UltraSparc 10 from 256MB of RAM to 512MB and to boost the hard drive from 9GB to 80GB. I need to find some information about the UltraSparc to see if there are any gotchas.

    Yeah, I have a 20 gig drive at work and the stupid thing fills up all the time. Doesn't help that I have a Windows 98 and Windows 2000 VMware, along with a couple vservers for building deb pkgs. And of course its a work computer so forget about upgrading it.
