Hey everyone, sorry for the slight delay in blog postings (I’ve been swamped with work). Anyway, at the request at one of my friends, I’ve modified a great directory listing script created by the folks at Evoluted to add a Delete File Function. Its kind of messy, but it works. Remember, if you enable the delete feature, make sure you have it in a password protected area, or don’t care about the files its showing. Heres the source.

Sorry for the delay in posting from the podcast website to this one, but the Old-Computer Podcast is Live!

Woo for the intelligent people at Digg!!

This is a computer blog, right? Well, why haven’t I told you about my computer yet? Well, I don’t know, but I guess we’ll follow the old saying: “Better late then never”. Anyways, my computer runs of of an Intel processor. I used to be a die-hard AMD fan, but the newer Intel chips have better speeds and take less electricity. Anyway, heres the list (direct from Newegg) of the parts of my computer.

• Intel Core 2 Duo E6550 Conroe 2.33GHz LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor Model BX80557E6550 - Retail
• Sunbeam RGPS-450W 450Watts ATX Power Supply - OEM
• GIGABYTE GA-G33M-S2H LGA 775 Intel G33 HDMI Micro ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail
• G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model F2-6400CL5D-2GBNQ - Retail

I also kept these parts from my old computer

• 160GB HDD
• DVD RW
• Antec Case

Overall, its a great build. I even got a free “Blazing Angels” game with it.

Now, I come to my new question. Should I upgrade this summer, or buy new. I still don’t know for sure weather I will even do either, but if I do, what should it be. New video card? Hard Drive? Voice your opinion in the comments.

In Case You’ve been living under a rock for the last day, Apple has introduced a new version of its popular iPhone which features 3G Download speeds (up to 3x faster then the previous iPhone’s EDGE), GPS navigation/location, and a sleeker plastic design. And, if you can’t already tell, I want one. However, there is one problem… (more…)

Have you recently taken a peek at the Old-Computer Network page? If you have, I’m sure you’ve seen something about the Old-Computer podcast. Well, that podcast is almost here. Were putting together the site at http://pod.old-computer.org, and it will be here soon. Please note that I will try to post on this blog every time there is a new podcast, just for everyone’s convience.

Well, I thought I might as well give you a little treat for today… Commander Keen 2!

Hey everyone,

Sorry for the shortage of material lately, but I have recently been working on a new feature for “The Network” that I thought was quite cool. This feature allows you to log into one of “The Network’s” Sites, and then allows you to stay logged in around the entire network. Cool, huh? Look for this feature to be out of beta and useable on all sites by the end of this month (sorry for the wait, but the social network needs to have a semi-working beta3 before this can be pushed out).
