So the compruder upgrades from here and here have finally been completed – technically the new beast was up and running as of Wednesday evening, however I just today finally got around to the final clean-up of putting the front panel back on, arranging cables behind the desk in a manner that actually makes sense, and pitching out all of the packing materials so that one can actually walk across the floor again.
Out with the old…
…and in with the new!
Happy, and more importantly usable workstation once again! Woohoo!!!
