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.
Vickie Diablos is a postgraduate student in Health Informatics, a hardcore gamer geek and a socially awkward logic and science nerd. She thought keeping a "cool blog" would make her a cool person. Alas.

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.

It looks like a mess..but what do I know?
Games are fun. If you’re into them. I myself can’t say that I am. Have fun

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.
