Default PC Upgrade

I replaced my PIII 866 with a PIV 3.4

I got it used from work for $200 taxes paid. Complete with mouse, keyboard and monitor.

Since two years ago, I've had to go to a shorter belt, and am now only two holes away from either acquiring a leather awl or getting out an old, still-shorter belt. Credits: my doctors, my diabetes support group, a fortuitous injury putting me on excellent hospital/care-center food (with no snack-smuggling by visitors) for a couple of months last winter, and Seattle Sutton's (happy) meals.

This would not have been possible when I was deeper in clinical depression. Credits for progress: my therapists, other doctor, and friends including those here at mersenneforum.org

I just found out msieve is actually used for a commercial application.

Also, I've now been married for 19 hours. So far so good...

Congratulations!!! I'm glad you posted the news in the Happy Me thread. But one must ask, why are you browsing the forums on your honeymoon?

Congrats on getting married, Jason!
