Think I just cracked a bone in my chest. Ridiculously powerful sneeze, definitely felt something crunch. I'll know later if it hurts more. That would be a weird way to end up in fracture clinic.

Probably just bruised.

 

[Red Squirrel]

Turns out nothing is broken, yeah probably bruised. I can still feel a bit of pain but nothing really excruciating.

Why the neon?

 

[eldorado99]

that must have been a pretty big hit to the pocketbook

Why the neon?

Helps to illuminate the laser etching. Looks far better in person, cell phone camera can only do so much.

It was a decent chunk, but I really needed a platform upgrade anyway, so still more than I needed to spend for sure, but not too bad.

Nice system!

I had a nice fancy case before too. I even had a clear acrylic one with blue CFLs at one point. Now days I just have a cheap rackmount case and the system is in the basement. I still need to run some cat6 for the power/reset buttons so I can toggle those from upstairs. I might get fancy and actually build a small panel with LEDs to show other info too and just multiplex it over a few wires using an atmel chip or something.



The cabling is a huge mess though, all the slack is shoved under the desk so the server rack can be kept cleaner. I eventually want to build a desk with a proper raised cable tray to snake the slack into. A "service loop" so to speak.

I have two systems though, my daily driver which runs Linux and then a Windows one for games, so that was one of the things that prompted me to move them downstairs, it was just too noisy and too dusty to have them in the office and took up lot of room.

Looks like a nice setup. Certainly looks like a cable nightmare though
