Suddenly, I have unlimited space. I’d say I don’t know what to do with it, but I really think if I challenged myself I could find ways to fill it up. 191 Gigabytes free certainly feels unlimited. Things I’ve thought of so far:

• Music
• Reinstall all the software I uninstalled to make space for music
• Re-rip all of my CDs to in FLAC format
• Rip/compress all my DVDs
• Install as many alternate operating systems as I want (The old 40 Gig is getting a fresh stage 1 of Gentoo ASAP)
• Comment with other suggestions

I guess this is what you get for your birthday when you complain about your hard drive filling up. Other recent upgrades include a new Radeon 9600 Pro and an Athlon XP 2600+, courtesy of a housemate who shipped his tower from Florida to Berkeley without writing “Fragile” anywhere on the box; to his credit, UPS really should have treated it better anyway. But thanks to them, I get some decent new equipment, which along with the bottomless pit hard drive brings my computer nicely up to date.

If you haven’t noticed by now, I like taking pictures of sunsets.
