Raider3's Frankenstein machine

<Raider3> goddamnit.. Eudora crashed... time to shut down and move to the linux machine...
<Raider3> okay, last moments from this 486.. it goes off shortly...
<katneko> r3: change the BIOS date dood
<KyouBoogy> keep it alive!
<KyouBoogy> keep it alive!
<Raider3> katneko: Not a Y2K problem - it page faulted...
<KyouBoogy> go ahead, man! keep it alive! see what happens!
<katneko> r3: ohhh ok *giggle*
<KyouBoogy> what's a little adventure!
<KyouBoogy> not like the world is gonna blow up if Raider486 goes down like a decent soldier!
<Raider3> but I need to replace this 486...
<katneko> hrm, shit, i guess that means i have to work on my 486 dont i? i didnt change the date yet
<KyouBoogy> so it needs replacing! let it live!
<KyouBoogy> let it live!
<KyouBoogy> til its dying breath!
<Raider3> it's too damn slow, and if I'm going to clean the slate with Win98 AGAIN, I'd rather put it on a new machine
<KyouBoogy> let it live through Y2k!
<Raider3> Might go back to Dos on the 486 for games...
<Raider3> or put linux on it....
<Raider3> I'm worried about power outages...
<KyouBoogy> if it lives through Y2000, then goddam, it must be a goddam GOOD machine!
<Raider3> it was built in 1995 (I built it)
<KyouBoogy> let it live!
<katneko> r3: thats a good idea...or you can slap linux on it and play some games with that
<KyouBoogy> whatever doesn't kill you, makes you stronger! that's what your machine is telling you! let me live! let me prove that I can make you happy, master raider3!
<KyouBoogy> heheh B)
* katneko remembers leizersuit larry for DOS
<Chihua^2> Oh man, R3 is such a drama queen. Is his life really this boring? ...ok, yeah, I know it is...
* Zeede gets Kyou some sedatives...it's just some 486 dude!
<KyouBoogy> zeede: but it has a life.. a goal.. a dream!
<katneko> kyou: jesus man *giggle*
<Zeede> no it doesn't!
<KyouBoogy> a dream to someday.. somehow... somewhere.. to be a 586!
<katneko> buahahahahahaa
<Zeede> it will never attain it! pipe dreams!
<katneko> ohh dear
<KyouBoogy> to live that glorious dream!
<KyouBoogy> let it live through Year2000! 
<katneko> that is its destiny
* katneko giggles
<Zeede> put it out of its misery!
<katneko> hehehe zeede
<KyouBoogy> let it prove to raider3 that it is WORTH something! til its last dying breath of CPU air!
<Zeede> it is worth...not very much!
<katneko> giggle
<KyouBoogy> heheh B)
<katneko> its worth playing DOS games on it though
<Zeede> it is ashamed of itself, it is begging to go to the silicon graveyard!
<Zeede> it goes, "Raider! I cannot even play MP3s for you! I am so ashamed!"
<KyouBoogy> but but but.. raider3 is just gonna turn it back on, like some lame Rumplestilskin!
<KyouBoogy> is that how it wants to live!
<Zeede> "Raider! I am too fast to play old games like Deathtrack and Tongue of the Fatman!"
<katneko> i have a 486.....but i dont think i changed the BIOS date on it yet
<Zeede> "I am worthless, please kill me!"
<Raider3> Well, the worst I expect is that I'll have to manually adjust the date once...
<Chihua^2> kat: man, that's an Ethan-ism.
<KyouBoogy> what bigotry! what worthlessness! what HONOR is that! to sleep through Year2000!
<Raider3> I managed to restart Eudora Pro (and it queued the mail for me.. cool)
<katneko> im just gonna sit here and watch it die *shrug*
<KyouBoogy> the labs of Intel designed that 486 to LIVE through anything! through radiation! through space rays! through the Gulf War! and yes! yes! it can live through the Year 2000! 
<Raider3> Kyou: Um... it has an AMD 486 chip in it ^_^:
<KyouBoogy> raid: well, whatever!
<KyouBoogy> it has a life!
<KyouBoogy> let it LIIIIVEEE!!!
<KyouBoogy> oh wait...
<KyouBoogy> did you say AMD?
<Raider3> yes...
<KyouBoogy> oh, put it out of its misery then...
<katneko> giggle
<katneko> byuahahahaa
* Raider3 facefaults
<Zeede> gahahahahahaha
<KyouBoogy> hehehe B)
<katneko> kyou, you are somethin else
<katneko> :)
* KyouBoogy just whistles.. ^.^
<Zeede> hmm, katneko is a Kyou groupie too?
<Chihua^2> Man, kyou should start a harem.
