..well, maybe not with actual swordfighting...

This is my life :)

It'll change once I have more than one job on the go (I'm still on my training wheels), but so far have done the storyboard and half the pencils for the next page of ACOS all during forced breaks while data is processing.

I'd finish it off tonight but I've been busy with my NEW IMAC. I thought Cam was just being sweet when he smsed me to ask why I was so late and if I'd be home before he left for gaming, and then hung about while I made dinner, but really he was just waiting to see the look on my face when I finally got around to going into the study :) (Which is also sweet, but in a different way)

It's very shiny. I have no idea how to transfer my files accross etc, and am pretty sleepy, so will wait till later. I look forward to doing art on a nice big screen and a computer that doesn't chug.

Is it one of the aluminium ones?

[distantcam.livejournal.com]

Yeah. The 24" 2.4Ghz one.

Phwor, they're already in Perth? Cool

LOL! I'd love that if only it didn't involve programming. Have fun playing with your new comp - have you named it yet?

[alias_sqbr]

Actually it's just running programs written by other people over data and then checking it, half my coworkers have health majors so I'm sure you could manage it. I'd say the real issue is location :)

I'm still pondering on names. We've got a tolkein theme going on, the other shiny powerful machines are galadriel and arwen. I'm pondering Lothlorien since it's so big but really need some spare time and a copy of the index to the Silmarilion :)

Call it Morgoth. :)

That is actually a fantastic name for Cam's new computer, which will be all black. The last windows machine was called "Saruman" so it keeps to the theme :)

Do they have to be female? Why not Elrond?

[alias_sqbr]

Bah, I never liked Elrond.

They don't have to be female, the one it's replacing was "Gandalf".
