460, case, and SATA cables should all arrive friday

 

[alfa147x]

I was hoping the 460 would come in sooner so I could go ahead and install OS X on to it

 

[MotF Bane]

I see Wanescotting has found his way there.

You're wasting a 2600K on OSX?!?!?

Looks like Wearever rotors will be about $37 each, although I can't tell if that's Wearever Silver or Gold.

On the other hand, a set of Brembo blanks would be about $44 each, and they supposedly last upwards of twice as long as most rotors.

lol yeah. Unfortunately I have to install windows to play deus ex, Dead Island, and eventually Skyrim.

This will be the first machine in this new apartment to run windows

 

[alfa147x]

I did install OSX on it already. Took 15 mins from first boot to log in. That was a satisfying hackintoshing

Distrust? Why do you dislike dishwashers?

Entered to win a Kindle Fire via the school's survey.

I'm sure a few thousand people will enter, but that's better odds than most places.

 

[MotF Bane]

So much easier. Start them after dinner, finishes right before bed, open it to dry overnight, empty in the morning.

Successfully refused the package.

That's true but we run ours at full load 2 - 3 times a week

My car supplies should arrive tomorrow... I plan on coming home from class around 1:30 on Friday, washing the car fully, stripping off anything already on it, drying it, then claying any problem spots (probably the front end), a light wash for clay residue, then apply sealant. The goal is to have all that done by about 6 in the evening, in the hopes that the sealant will be dry enough that, if I want to, I can apply a second coat of it on Saturday before work, and I'll take another vehicle to work.

After the second coat dries, or if I bypass a second coat, I'll wax the car. If there isn't a second coat of sealant, two coats of wax by the end of Sunday. Then I'm pretty much all set and just need to maintain it all winter.

Same here. We generally wait for it to get full and then either start it as we go to bed or right before we leave for work.
