on sale at Newegg for $79.00 it cost me 82.99 with rush processing and *MAY* be here tomorrow if it ships from California. . .

Which will free up 4 160GB Drives out of my file server, increase the total size of my storage by 50% and allow me to populate the 4 of the 7 machines I was given when I helped close Pat Clark Auto.

If you know any one in the Las Vegas Area who is interested in a super cheap FreeNAS file server (I will have 2 ready to go) with a 160GB Drive in each. . . I can hook you up. . .

I will also be pre-purchasing the first Microsoft OS I've purchased* since Windows 3.11 tomorrow. . . http://www.microsoft.com/windows/buy/offers/pre-order.aspx $99.00 for Windows 7 Professional is nothing to sneeze at.

Good News First. . .

My Vacation time for Noise in the Woods in Approved. . . yay for being out of Las Vegas for over a week, even if 4 days of that will be spent driving to Oregon and Back.

Bad News. . .

Lunch is NOT agreeing with me. . .

First the bad news.

We would like to thank everyone for their support over the last three years, we could not have done this without you and we truly appreciate your patronage at Vector.

However,

July 4th will be the last Regular Vector @ Black Label, we were asked to consider moving the night to a Sunday, Wed, or Thursday and it didn't take long to realize that the idea is just not tenable.

August 8th, will be the final Show for Vector @ Black Label. We haven't decided if we're going to find another venue or just take a break for a while. At this point even if the bar were to magically change their minds once again regarding the night, we'd walk away.

The owners were quite thrilled with the upswing of attendance that occurred from the April through the end of may (which is why they asked us to go weekly) but were disappointed by the following drop to the lowest numbers we've ever seen show up at Vector.

No amount of excuses and explanations about the competing house parties (yes multiple) and other things going on that night could be accepted. They are business people, and need to be profitable. They need to try something else that will make them money because we are not making them what they think they could make with another group on that night. It has come down to move to another night or move on. . .

I hope to see you all out over the next few weeks we're going to exit with style and grace starting with:
