Shop-Ping!

posted on Sunday, July 2, 2006 @ 2:45 pm

Oh but if it’s a shopping blog entry of yours truly, it’d be chock-full of geeky goodness! (And funny how I sneered at the “it’d be cool if there were more images in the blog” comment from a person who didn’t read a single word, and now 3 consecutive entries with images, huh.)

Bought an extra pair of yummy 512mb RAM for AMD Diablos! Although they’re completely out of sight (under the wires) in the picture…

Games I should have bought much, much earlier! (Command & Conquer The First Decade + Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence)

Although AMD Diablos still doesn’t like this version of Red Alert 2… (started Windows Installer, ran game compatible to blah blah blah; nothing worked)

But I’m glad she (+ her 7600GS baby) gets along very nicely with Lineage II, at 1280×1024, too.

Overall, these make Vickie a semi-happy gamer and geek (wannabe).

But but but… I really wanted me some old school Apocalypse. :(

    Whoa, what a mess of wires. I have yet to open up my hard driver before so I have no idea what lies beneath.

    And aww, you’re leaving Hong Kong? I’ll be there until the 18th so perhaps if you are around, we could probably meet up. (:

    Extra RAM for gaming pleasure, me love. Look at those games, PC AND PS2, do you even eat? ;) I want to be a crazy gamer too but neither my father nor my computer will get along with the games. I’ll just look at your pictures for the time being. :X

    This week Despair.nu wants you to comment me and Exentrique wants me to comment you. Lovely. :P
