Celery 700 @ 1050

[Medic193]

I upgraded my Celeron 300A to a Celeron 700 today. It has now been running at 1050 MHz stable all day long. Not too bad of an OC if I say so myself. I'll probably tone it back a bit before I go to bed. 950 should be fine. :D

Well as you know already X my Linux install crashed as soon as I posted that. I know someone up in heaven is laughing at me. Ahhh who cares, I'll reinstall Linux and try it again. A linux install and setup should only take me 3 or 4 days.:rolleyes: :D

What ever happened to the good old days, when is all you had to do was load 43 floppys and be done with it.:D

Dave - Ya that's right Dave, it should only take me about another 50 GHz and I'll overtake you. :D

Siggy - Oh the sweet memories of easy installs. I still dream about them. Now the only problem is learning how to do Linux better. Everytime I install I get a speed error that just scrolls thousands of times across the screen. No idea why it's doing this. It even does it when the chips isn't oc'd. This one will take me a bit to figure out.:confused:

Anyone care to remember installing NetWare 2.12 where the OS was first generated onto floppies, then installed onto a hardisk that had to have been surface tested for 48 hours?

Or AIX 2 onto IBM/PC RTs that had literally hundreds of 5¼" floppies?

I'm thinking that goes back before my time. What exactly was Netware? My first real computer I installed 3.1 on. I had a Commodore 64 when I was young, but don't remember a whole heck of alot about it.

What was Netware?

NetWare is still very much an is rather than a was. Many large coporates run Netware because it has a true mature directory service unlike Micro$oft that pretends to have a directory.

Yep -- in a notebooks with plastic like a photo album. And when you were done you still had a dog. It took several years and several upgrades for IBM to get both the hardware and the OS to work acceptably.

I can get hold of a couple of 6150s if anyone is genuinely interested.

They should be in a museum really, as the first RISC computers. They had the processing split onto several chips and were the pre-cursors of the modern PowerPC chip as used in current Apples.
