New computer gear and mud addiction!!
I recently set a new record in the Dmac world. I went three days without touching a computer. I was starting to have withdrawal symptoms and thus here I am. Christmas has been good. I got a new mobile keyboard and mouse. I needed a tiny keyboard (courtesy of my beautiful wife) for my home computer and the mouse is awesome. The response time on the mouse is great for wireless. Both of them also work up to 100ft away from the computer. Not that I would ever browse the net from the back yard with a telescope, but hey, it's a thought. The mouse also works in the air with wrist motions, and you can set different motions to open up applications. I don't know that I will use this feature, but once again, it is cool. I also want to take some time to brag on my wife for buying me a tech toy. She hates the way I spend so much time on a computer, but she still buys me something to encourage it.
I have started playing a mud (multi user dungeon) which gets me one step closer to reaching the most ultimate scale of computer nerdom. If you haven’t ever played a text based game, this would be the one to try. Check it out at www.avpmud.com. It’s based off of the Alien vs. Predators movies. You have a choice of building a human, alien, or predator character. Each race is unique in its own way. This mud also escapes the normal 2 dimensional mud by adding a 3rd dimension. You can travel up, down, north, south, east, and west. I started playing it because it was dial-up friendly and now I love it. Give it a try!!!
I am also looking to make some changes on this site. I would like to add some neat features and possibly even some additional pages. I know that I want to include a page with a list of all the RegHacks that I post. If you have any suggestions for this site, please make a comment. I'm looking for ideas.
