| 650385 | 2008-03-18 19:50:00 | Haha, a girlfriend I have, just over 7 months now... She's actually studying early childhood education at the same Uni as me, so we spend Wednesdays together in-between classes :) I also happen to do a lot of volunteer work with youth which takes up a lot of time, but not the kind of time work that I can do during / between lectures. |

| 650388 | 2008-03-18 23:21:00 | If you're looking for some retro games, www.abandonia.com is pretty good (haven't been there for a while though). One game I liked was Ignition (www.abandonia.com) (about 17Mb). Don't know how it would run under wine, but it had network play. There's heaps of others there as well (just getting some of them to run is entertaining/frustrating depending on how you look at it). As for anything physical, well, don't look at me. | ubergeek85 (131) | ||

| 650391 | 2008-03-19 03:52:00 | Chill: If you are studying at Auckland University (you don't have to confirm or deny this :p), I think an UoA LUG Installfest is coming up soon. Stay tuned at http://ualug.ece.auckland.ac.nz. Cheers :) |

| 650393 | 2008-03-19 06:45:00 | While we're on Auckland Uni, anyone else noticed the computers they have at Kate Edgars are overkill? Students only use them for MS Word etc and internet....yet they're given E6400s and 2GB RAM. Even an E2140 would suffice. | qazwsxokmijn (102) | ||
