    Unhappy I AM a GEEK...

    I just realized how much of a nerd I really am...

    So, I was watching Episode 2 for the second night on opening weekend...

    I look down to my breast pocket and realize that I have two RAM sticks poking out...

    No, my geekhood hasn't achieved that level yet...

    They were just a couple of sticks of SDRAM... 64 and 128 meg...

    Hmmm, maybe I can start marketing them as jewelry...

    Well that is pretty bad. For some reason I found that I moved 20 chips of RAM for an old 80/86 that I had built back in the day pretty geeky. Ok so the fact that I have pieces for computers that have been obsolete since the mid 80's pretty bad.

    BTW, what the hell can I do with a whole sleeve of 80/86 ram other than solder it onto board chips as art work?
    Welcome my son, welcome to the machine...Where have you been? It's alright we know where you've been....

    Maybe he has enough electrical energy in his body to keep the memory powered to store some stuff.

    Please forgive my lack of technical knowledge but doesn't keeping memory in a shirt pocket really cut into its functionality? I think it would work quite a bit better IN a computer.

    I use old memory as keychains. I also have a motherboard made into a clipboard.

    Shall we drive a more powerful car?
