[01:56:52] <Bytram> don't know yet, for sure. Things can change, yanno?
[01:57:20] <Bytram> I suspect my sis is heading off to her hubby's folks for the holiday
[01:57:51] <Bytram> I'm sure I could invite myself over to my other sibs, but that's not in my nature to impose on others.
[01:58:01] <cmn32480> of course
[01:58:02] <Bytram> oh, while you are here...

[02:00:27] <cmn32480> specs say SATA-300
[02:00:54] <cmn32480> but... they are all backerds compatible
[02:00:59] <Bytram> nod nod
[02:01:13] <Bytram> main concern would be whether or not the connectors would be compatible
[02:01:18] <cmn32480> yes
[02:01:21] <cmn32480> SATA is Sata
[02:01:29] <cmn32480> connectors have always

[12:34:56] <cmn32480> got me a standing desk and I try to make sure IO pace while on the phone
[12:35:09] <Bytram> had gained some weight one time, felt like I was carrying around a couple bags of potatoes all day long... too much work!
[12:35:22] <Bytram> easier to lose weight than to carry all that around with me.

[12:38:46] <cmn32480> and be careful with the 13" units
[12:38:52] <Bytram> oh?
[12:38:53] <cmn32480> they often have different drives

[18:13:22] <AndyTheAbsurd> Windows 8 and 8.1 were obvious non-starters; Windows 10 doesn't seem completely awful from a UI experience but Microsoft doesn't seem to care about the customer experience when it comes to updates.
[18:22:13] <cmn32480> yeah updates are a fricking nightmare with Win10
