Live from the garage!!

OK.... I installed an old PC in the garage put it on the WIFI and I have internet down here. Ready to do another push on the dash / center console. Wouldn't dream of trying this without this forum.

I guess now you won't have to be running back and forth from the house to the garage, to get your info, that is a great idea.

It's there to catch a drip.
I think I got the leak fixed yesterday, I'll know when it rains again. Figured a leak that close to the PC won't do.

Got the AIM, internet, and all the pictures I took during dis-assembly on my old beat-up laptop right there on the workbench; very helpful tool to have.

I love having my pc in the garage..excellent for quick reference to forum material, watching C6R racing videos on you tube with the sound cranked full volumn or listening to internet radio .

I just used an old Dell desktop stuck under the bench with 250 gig hard drive, 2 gig ram and a 17" flat screen then ran a cat 5 down to the basement into my router....got 5 pc's in the house
