Pistol Pete's computer has been shipped

[GregB0Participant]

Pistol Pete’s “new” CPU is up to speed and was mailed today, along with all his new computer accessories.

He will receive it on Friday and should be online by Friday night. Having said this, he received several multi-item gunsmith projects yesterday that has been keeping him very busy.

Regardless, PP’s hiatus from MGTOW will soon be over. Watchout everyone, he has a lot of kvetching to get out of his system.

Does it smell like the Ocean from the railway salvage company he bought it from? Or does it smell like fire?

Can’t wait. Looking forward to having him back.

Tower,

The predominate smell is of concrete, it was used to hold down Hoffa’s left hand after all. Yep, it’s an industrial sized abacus. Good guess however!

Damn. That sounds really nice. It will work out great for Pistol Pete. Won’t be a steep learning curve, he will jump right back on.

Ask Pete if he wants his new diamond plate aluminum hat pressed or welded? Pressed is goofy looking and welded has a nice Spartan ridge to catch the lightning!

Giant Stadium is a myth, Hoffa’s buried in Sharky’s dump, Troy Hills, Parsippany NJ. Hes in the North branch of the dump right next to the Passaic River under a mountain of garbage! I was there when the dump was in operation and there was no gates or security whatsoever!

Haffa’s final resting place;

Where’s Haffa is my first question for god, I’m sure i’ll be saying “was I right, or was I right?!?!”

Yep, that’s a major upgrade for Pete. Did you burn the drivers and softeare installs on a disc sent with the machine so he can do a quick re-install if it gets taken out by the many malicious codes out there?

Back Up Back Up.

Anyway, better than the POS he had before. I think he got it from his local computer shop. Rip off artists charged me $20 for an old sound card that didin’t even work. Stored in an open box with others and not in a static proof bag. I call that exploitation of the non tech savvy.

Good job he’s got good friends to help him out in the modern world.

Kudos to you GregBo

He will be jerking off to high def porn in no time.

He told me about that and was grateful for your help. They were trying to take advantage. Glad it was able to be returned.

[GregB0Participant]

Of course and created three restore points for him as well.

Tower: plated of course, Pete will want full voltage!

Notice I only said concrete inferring it was used to hold him down. 😀

Frost: afraid that the only HD jerking Pete will be doing is to HD cathedral music

May 7, you have been there and have seen Pistol Pete’s three legacy 286, 386 and 486 machines. The first two were donated by friends and the last purchased by Pete from a local PC store.

He is still playing LHX Attack Helicopter off 5 1/4 drives. Getting him onto a 2000 era machine is a MAJOR feat!
