What’s up 2011 - Finally, the 3rd Room Project!

Let me announce that the 3rd Room Project is now in working condition.
Some changes have been made due to space limitations and such but all is well. Surprisingly, everything seemed to fits very well in the room. Got some plans to add more stuff. Most probably another monitor to add to my 14” laptop, maybe some romantic IKEA lamps (lol), dustbin (buy-list), wall rack (wish-list) and etc et cetera… Here is some pics taken with my Torchie.

AND, I have already bought a nice and affordable chair (named “VERNER”) from IKEA (above). More pics of it below.

With the home-office [the 3rd Room Project] is now in place, I have been doing a lot of soul searching lately. But in a geeky way lah. Haha.

Was planning to buy a new powerful machine specially for gaming AND transform my current ATOM MiniPC into Network-Attached Storage (NAS). But after some consideration, I have decided to postpone the project; indefinitely until I get more moolah. I’ve come to a realization that the “new machine” would be so expensive. *Sigh*

But while doing the research on NAS, I have been introduced to FreeNAS. A dedicated OS for NAS systems. Very nice. I’ll come back to that when its time. ;)

What’s up? It’s almost the end of November 2010!

December is coming soon and everything is pretty much stalled after my last update.
My sister’s wedding is just around the corner. Will be pretty much without technology for about a week or so. But hey, I’m sure it’ll be fun. Meeting families and relatives. Old and new buddies.

To sum it up on what has been happening for the last 2 to 3 weeks, I’ll just do a quick recap/review. But I might miss out a thing or two. Will definitely cover those next time.

The 3rd Room Project
The custom rack is just marvelous! It clears all the clutters and I have enough space for my workstation and/or even a guest bed.

Blackberry Torch
At long last, I’ve purchased the “Torchie” as I’m fond of calling it now. Managed to get it at DiGi Centre, Berjaya Times Square. Missed out the RM999 offer but what the heck, got a RM480 rebate as pre-registered “customer”.

So what’s next in December? Surely alot of planning to do. Probably the busiest month with little time to spare. Here’s so-called “For Sure” list-to-do.

Workstation, sub: The 3rd Room Project
I’m still undecided on whether to retain the old pc table and look for extension table so I can put all the stuff like switch router, KVM switch, NAS, laptops etc et cetera. OR, buy a new long table. Bleh. But a table it will be. To progress further with the room. *Sigh*

That is as RAW as I can get. Will do a proper planning for December once I’m back from my hometown.

Au Revoir. KL-MYY.
