Dealing with printers on a day-to-day basis is something I really really despise. I really feel that paper is a dying business as far as large enterprises are concerned and that the transition to digital media is well overdue. As a result I decided to make my daily experience with printers that little more enjoyable by changing my name in the job queue – I was incredibly surprised it worked…
So, when I created the photoblog, I wanted it to give a bit of an insight into my life as well, which is where today’s picture comes from. While it doesn’t show off my photographic skill, it does show off how inventive we can be when we really want something to work.
These are two Cisco 3560 48-port switches. One with a broken power supply, one with a broken mainboard. We thought we could swap the power supply from one into the other, to create one working box from two dead ones – but we needed to test it first.
BEHOLD!
I really love this stuff, although its stupidly expensive over here in Brussels. Like…€3 a can! Beer is cheaper, but isn’t as good for grinding CCIE..
While I’m here, updates should be coming a bit more regularly from next week on. It’ll be iPhone pictures I’m afraid to say but I will try and do the best I can. I refuse, however, to use Instagram.
This week has been MENTAL! Normal service will resume shortly. In the meantime enjoy the below – I stole it from my deviantART account…The less is said about that, the better.
There will be no photo updates as they stole my camera.
A while ago Mr. Shields, an esteemed friend of mine, challenged me to photograph something that was architecturally interesting. I was tempted to find a cool CPU and take a picture of that, as for me that is the most frequent use of the word architecture. However, when I was in Reading I came across this and thought it fitted the bill pretty well. Enjoy J!
Decided to shoot some night time images in Reading while I had time to spare on Tuesday night. Some weren’t so great given that compacts aren’t amazing in low light conditions, but I quite liked this shot given the water was moving and the rest was stationary.
