Well, I am officially unemployed now - or as I put it - my parole came through! ![]() Welcome to the happiness that only comes to those who formerly worked for IBM! That does seem to be the case. One thing that I HAVEN'T been hearing lately are stories of folks who regretted leaving IBM however they left. Typical is the story I got from a friend who worked with someone that found a job outside IBM and left on their own. After three weeks at the new job, their comment to my friend was - I don't know why I ever worked at IBM. |

Jonathan, the 9800GTX+ came in today. Thanks to both Dataman and Jonathan for it. I had a hard time convincing the school the package was mine since it had my address but it had your name on it. So they look up my mailbox and they find your name doesn't match with the owner (me). Busy with school.. I'll test when I can. That's great!! Where's mine Jonathan? ![]() |

Nice, just noticed that I finally made gold on CEP last night. I actually finally got a beta WU over the weekend while I had my old work laptop set without an additional work queue. Interesting. I thought they used short deadlines on those. Even if you have a queue of work, with the short deadline, a beta should go to the top of the list. Hmmm......

Nah, not interested in being professionally unemployed.l ![]() ![]() Who knows, you might find it rewarding. Perhaps you could inspire your students to share your interest in grid computing and/or humanitarian relief work. |

Nearly a year ago, the VA provided me with a power chair which has not been that reliable for me. A couple of months ago, they listened to me and decided to give me a new, better built one. It arrived today and I am pretty pleased with it for the most part. It looks a lot like this one:

Mine has a different seat without the headrest a support for my amputated stump off the front of it. My joystick controller is on the right armrest. It has a removable bracket designed to carry an oxygen cylinder at the back. [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Apr 28, 2009 7:33:48 PM] |

Looks like WCG is having problems with the end of day statistics today. I'll post ours here once they resolve their problems.
