| Re: Will this forum ever die? I'm guessing it will die about the time someone pries that cold dead sharks fin from my shelf along with all the dust it's collecting. Unless I convert it to an ant farm.

| Re: Will this forum ever die? Well,
From what I understand... given the 8% unemployment rate and the closure of a few other tech industry jobs here in PDX, quite a few people are still on unemployment...
Luckily for me I found a job slinging coffee. The funny thing is, I make more money now than I did at DTVBB. :P | |

| Hey Boggled,
If you are still interested in working in the Telecom industry, New Edge maybe hiring.
Let me know if you are interested especially since they are located just across the river in Vancouver.

| We're supposed to get our first digital camera with this year's tax retrun, so be patient til that happens. As for instructions, that's easy.
1.) go to Wal-Mart artsy craftsy department and get a battery operated clock kit
2.) go to Radio Shack and get blinky diodes, a board to run them, and a battery for the board.
3.) take apart the modem, and pitch the guts. Keep the lenses for the blinky lights.
4.) drill a hole in the front to put the clock guts through
5.) put the clock guts inside the front half of the modem, attach with Velcro brand adhesive backed hook and loop fastener. Don't use cheap stuff.
6.) attach the board for your diodes somewhere near the side lights, again with Velcro, and use some clear glue to attach the blinky diodes close to the blinky light lenses on the side.
7.) close it all up and enjoy
