Things come and things go.
Or, in the case of computers in my apartment, some things come and some things stay. Things have changed enough that I found it motivated to do a totally new setup page and call the previous one old.
Pomum, my PowerBook, is of course the major change. A stable, portable laptop with wireless networking can totally change in what position you do your general computing. Surfing, mailing, chatting, website editing, after little more than a week I do almost all my stuff on Pomum.
Terminus' drop in usage has been pretty dramatic, suddenly I can have it turned off for days without missing it at all. Otherwise it's similar to before, running Windows XP with a homebrewed LiteStep theme on top. I'll of course keep using it for games, and possibly a program or two, but apart from that file serving seems like the major future usage.
Between getting proper hosting for my site and setting Pomum up for testing/development purposes, Pigbox has seen an enormous drop in utilization. Mandrake and XP is still in there, and everything's still set up to do serving if I turn it on, but that critical need to actually do so has disappeared. Maybe I'll take up more low-level Linux experimentation on it, because right now it just sits unused.
My Amiga is under my bed, in company of another one with interesting modifications that I found in the basement one day. Dad's old Mac is in a cupboard, with a severely bent keyboard connector there sadly isn't anything I can do with it even if I'd want to.
