What Technology is Running at my House?

The advantage of being a giant nerd is that I have a lot of neat technology running at my house.

The computers:

  • A Dell Optiplex 530 running Windows XP on a monitor as big and as failure prone as your mortgage.
  • A 13" 2008 Macbook running OS X 10.5.5 and Windows XP on VMWare Fusion

The network:

  • Two Linksys WRT-54g routers running DD-WRT as wired bridges. Translation: My desktop machine uses a wired connection to one router which is wirelessly connected to the main router.
  • One Linksys NSLU2 device running UNSLUNG that connects my external 500GB drive to the network. This means I can back up my Desktop, MacBook, and website to this drive. See this related article about the importance of backups and the methods you can use.
