The sweet, sweet smell of hardware upgrades. I bumped my home Fedora 10 x86_64 desktop to 8GB this weekend. That is, I did it after digging through a good 1/4 inch of dust to actually find my memory slots first. In my next home office, I’m not having carpet, this just bites. That, or a fanless machine, but I digress.

Why did I upgrade? The better question is why not. It’s still running DDR2 which these days they pretty much give away in happy meals and at the bottom on cereal boxes, so it’s not like cost was really a problem. More importantly, this will help feed my growing (arguably unhealthy) obsession with seeing how many virtualized guests I can have running on my network at the same time…
