Getting my hands dirty
Thursday, July 13, 2006
Audio : Listen

For the past two days, I have been keeping myself busy installing servers. Heavy, old and dusty machines. Damn! Getting my eyes and nose all irritated and watery.

Setting up servers/PCs was something that was very 'natural' to me a couple of years back. Pass me a machine, the setup CDs and pop, I will get it up. Nowadays, I find that the dust and the amount of physical work I have to go through is nothing but shit - and a big load of shit it is! Ha! I guess too much of the 'good life' as a programmer really made me lazy.

Anyway, just imagine this. I am trying to install Windows Server 2003 on a 2xPentium II processor machine, running on a pathetic 512MB of RAM (ONLY!!!). Gosh! Copying the Windows setup files alone took almost ten minutes!

No choice lah. When you have to get it done, you'll just have to do it! You're paid to do the (any) job! That's why yours truly is getting his hands dirty on this one!
