So I was sick, in midst of home renovations, and ITCHING to run my buffer on anything… and I mean ANYTHING!
My garage has been taken over by furniture, and a million boxes. I couldn’t go out because of a nagging strapped throat, and had a TON of time on my hands…
I underwent battle with anything that I could find. First started off with sealing my shower wall, move onwards to wetsanding/compounding/polishing my washer machine, and for my final assault, I fought with my computer tower!

Process:
- Polishing pad and Menzerna FPII via rotary @1000rpms
- Sealed with Poorboys EX-P
- Waxed with Poorboys Natty-Blue
15 minutes passed, in a long night. ☹

AMD xp2400+
7 Years… Are you sure? 7 years ago I was working in a Computer repair shop putting PIII 667MHz in boards as the most popular Intel processor. AMD didn’t have… 1.6GHz??? at the time
Hey BTW Gabe. What’s your official consideration on buying a Nissan? 350Z tickle your fancy?

Skyline fanboi? BTCHPLEEZ… I’m a big-sedan, euro-chap fa lyfe yo!
Here’s how I look at it.
Buy a luxurious euro = style, with money spent on maintenance and gas
Buy a fast car = there’s no such thing as fast. There’s always faster, and that ‘faster’ part = money. This in addition to speeding tickets, things not working the way they’re supposed to, and no warantee to fix minor stuff.
Regardless, car ain’t happening until I’m at LEAST 25… university, and insurance is a b(#%\*!
Oh, my computer is a super computer, in 2002.
Had this thing for the past oh, 5-6 years I think.
- AMD 1.7ghz
- Radeon x1600
- Pretty much sums it all up… haha
I don’t play computer games anymore, so no need to upgrade… In the market for a 12" notebook now.
When I get my garage back in a few weeks, I’m probably going to wetsand the tower, to get rid of all that damn orangepeel. If I \*\*\*\* up, then I’m repainting it white or silver… something that will hide those swirls, and scratches for good… I can’t stand looking at it in my kitchen, with so much lighting on top of it… ☹

Popcorn, are you nuts? back then fx5200’s retailed at a solid 300 dollars (mustve been at least 5 years ago. bestbuy was letting them off at 150, limit to 1 per customer or i wouldve totally jumped on that shit.

Not Euro but INFINITI Q45… Or maybe even M45.
First gen Q45 looks so pimp when it’s lowered with chrome rims

Yeah Future Shop/Best Buy always have the best Boxing Day sales. Then it’s back to ripping people off the rest of the year.
