My PC

I've bought myself a pair of UV-lughts and a pair of blue neon lights. Now my Xaser V Damier looks just gorgeous. Inside I have a DFI LanParty NF4 Ultra-D mobo and UV-enabled SATA and IDE cables + 2 blue LED fans. And on the back and on the bottom of the case I've attached the blue neons, so my room at night is now quite bright.

As well as the neons, I got myself a Logitech G15 Gaming keyboard. Now that was a really clever thing to do, as it just OWNS!

This is my room, my Xaser case and the gorgeous Logitech G15 ;)

HDD space

I've been working on a DV-video project about my graduation party... Now it has finally went out of the beta stage and has a "release" status. That's 60GB more of free HDD space (i have 2x300GBs Seagate SATA drives, but most of that is dedicated to the stuff I'm hosting on my LAN ftp server), now that I have saved the final DVD iso and 700 and 1400mb versions of the final video.

It turned out a pretty neat video that lasts 80 minutes.
What I used for video editing was Adobe Premiere 2.0 Pro and pretty much nothing else if you don't count VirtualDubMod for encoding a DVSD (standard DV) video stream into DivX.

P.S. Now with all the video encoding tasks I have been doing lately, I'm absolutely sure there's no way I'm not buying an Athlon 64 X2 4200+ or higher after AMD lowers CPU prices on the 24th of July. I'm running an AMD Athlon 64 based system atm, with an Athlon 64 4000+, 2x1024 dualchannel RAM, a DFI NF4 Ultra-D mobo and an ASUS N7800GTX videocard to make my server/work/gaming rig complete.

My First Post

There has to be a first post, right? Well here it is...
Why did I choose Blogspot? Well to start off, its minimalistic design (a la Ikea/Swedish furniture/appartment designs) attracts me way more than the cluttered interface of LJ and such.

I'm running another blog on a russian blogsite, www.diary.ru, but it's mostly personal and (duuh) in russian.

This blog was created to write about tech stuff I find out, so stay tuned :P
