Hello everybody, again just a quick update and asking for help.
Jannis Pohlmann is gathering some survey data about Thunar Volume Monitor. See the original mail in the Thunar mailing list and take the survey, if you happen to use Thunar.
Have happy times using Free Software.
Because my old Shuttle PSU decided to stop working, I had to think seriously if I wanted a replacement PSU (and probably mainboard also) or a new case and a bit more new components. I decided to order completely new components and have been using them for almost a week now.
The new parts (worth mentioning) are:
These have worked really well this far and I can feel quite a lot difference to the old components. Now Photoshop CS2 is starting in a whopping 4,5 seconds inside VBox with 4,5 GB RAM assigned. Sweet!
Even if the new case (Antec NSK-4000B II) is a bit uglier and bigger than my old one (Shuttle SN27P2), I am reasonably satisfied.
For what comes for the old PC, I am thinking of buying the replacement PSU regardless the 130+€ price tag (and hoping the mainboard isn’t broken – wish me well) and building a gaming PC out of it. I still have the 19″ ViewSonic unused, so in addition to the PSU, the only mandatory new buy would be a harddrive, assuming the mainboard isn’t broken.
