I'm confused.

Re-read the message but substitute "Red Had Certified Engineer" or
"Red Hat Partner" everywhere it says Microsoft?  Is it still a bad
message?  If not, why not?

OT: message "from Microsoft"

[Mike Schwartz]

I got this message (on LinkedIn.com):
http://partner.linkedin.com/2010/01/linkedin-partner-message-from-microsoft-12/?n=4d696b65
It
has also been archived here:
   http://www.webcitation.org/5muPL2hYq
so that even if the "original" one gets deleted, or disappears behind
a paywall or something, that "archived" copy should still be available.

*"No comment" needed** *on why (or, let's say, *whether*)
Microsoft's way of doing business strikes me as "unpleasant".
Their message speaks for itself.

Re: OT: hardware

[Technomage]

well, barring psu or ram sticks. if nothing else, the motherboard b0rked 
then. it does happen (given
how fragile that electronics really are, I am surprised it doesn't 
happen more often)

Re: OT: hardware

Good points. Either could have been the problem and I was hoping that
one of them was--much simpler/cheaper to fix. I didn't mention in the
original post, but I did pull the memory sticks one at a time (it had
two 512MB sticks). Barring a sudden failure of both, that wasn't the
problem. I also wondered about a PSU failure and checked voltages--they
were good, even if the color coding on the wires was weird. AAMOF it's
running the new mobo just fine.

was the beep a short single or a long single? was there more than one?

also, the simplest thing that can go wrong is usually a PSU failure (and 
depending on how it goes it *can*
tank the motherboard or the cpu or any peripherals you have connected).

I suspect that it was the motherboard that went, not the processor, but don't 
know for certain. FWIW, while I was checking things out I could hear the initial 
"beep" and the HDs start up.

The CPU was a 2.x Ghz  AMD Athlon 64. If anyone wants the CPU--with or without 
motherboard attached, they're welcome to it. Just come by & get it. I live near 
Central & Glendale in Phoenix, email me off list if interested.

Paging Steve DuChene

[Eric Shubert]

Steve, if you're out here please contact me. I'd like to talk with you a 
little about ganglia.

(I sent an email to your mindsprint address a week or so ago and haven't 
heard back, so I'm guessing that you might not monitor that address)

Thanks, and pardon the noise everyone (else).

do you have a target platform? There are several ARM-based demo boards...

Well, no more ideas? yes I can use an atom board, but it's expensive and
just need too much power, at the other end, why people uses arduino? just
use a computer, following this philosophy
openmoko pandora nokia N900 Nexus one fonera kindle etc. no better idea than

Re: Stammtische Tue and Wed night

[Tuna]

I won't be at either. BRB, Oklahoma.

Someone will have to get to BWR at Avondale at like 1830-1845 to nab the 
table behind the cash register. Find Gloria (owner) or Robin (waitress who's
familiar with these meetings) and tell her that you're with the computer 
group. I'll make sure they know that it's on Wed and that I won't be there.
