    Welp, it was officially announced today. Considering I still haven't done much with my model B, I won't yet be getting it... but it's nice to see they've actually listened to and acted on community suggestions.

    All connectors across 2 edges. Proper micro SD slot. All 4 USB ports of the onboard hub broken out instead of just the 2. All of the GPIO broken out instead of just a portion of it. Switchmode regulation instead of linear (that was responsible for a large portion of the pi power draw). Improved audio circuitry. All good to me :D But I don't particularly have need for any of that so I'll stick with my B for now.

    Build a robot. That is all.

    This golf cart that we rented has this annoying alarm thing that goes off when the cart rolls. If you are sitting on a slope and you want to just roll the cart down it from a stop, when you get going 2 or 3 mph, this alarm goes off. Then it'll automatically put the brakes on and slow you to a crawling speed. If your trying to do something its annoying.
    It saved my ass when the parking brake released by itself when the cart was on a hill right beside a street though.

    The money for my 650ti became available in PayPal so I ordered a Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3P. Now it's gonna sit on my desk for a few weeks eating at me until I get enough cash for the CPU. I would just return the keyboard and buy the CPU but.. It's just so awesome compared to that Crapple keyboard.. I can't give it up. I can't wait to have eight cores... (Drive is gonna be awesome.)

    Anyway, I used the "Super Egg Saver" shipping which is 4+ days but the last time I ordered something on Newegg it took less than one day for it to get here with that shipping method. :D

    Maybe I could just sell my Asus netbook..
    Also, my new netbook seems to have developed a BSODding problem. I think it has to do with me running it at max speed at .85v but when I crank up the voltage it still does it at max speed.. I'll have to try turning off Throttlestop and turn Speedstep back on.
