ljpliceaseI was thinking about purchasing a new computer, an AMD64 which would have been named after Starscream's weapon, the null ray. The intention was to use it as a temporary replacement for the sick DoubleThink server I have at work, until I can figure out what is wrong with the HP AMD64 my patron gave me. Later I'd use it for my own purposes at home, as my newest PC is several years old and nearing obsolescence. I hesitated though; I really need to save given future plans for the year 2006.
I was reading about Katrina, and apparently I am pretty good at being oblivious to current events until they are at least a few days old, because I had no idea just how bad things were in the Big Easy. I decided to instead give the money that I would have spent on a new computer that I don't really need to the Red Cross and Doctors Without Borders.
