Mini-itx
Intel Atom
Very little noise
Very low power (under 150w)
dual cat-5 ethernet ports, 10/100, 10/100/1000
500GB 2.5" HDD

No DVD drive
Cabling is arse but it's the best I can do
Front USB 3.0 port shall never work (because motherboard simply doesn't support)
stuffty amount of RAM.


It's really a media PC motherboard but it's got the things I need for really low power and low noise with no fans (no cpu fan, no graphics card fan etc). The NIC will be used for connecting to my development computer/raspberry pi while the main ethernet port will go to my room network switch (more computers, internet).

Anybody experienced with Ruby on Rails? I'm having issues with somebody's github project I need to use.

>rails server
>complains that I need rails gem
>I have the exact version it needs from the gemfile
>tells me to update rails gem
>I update using bundle install
>tells me stuffs broken with the application config boot.rb (because rails-3 works differently)

Did this quick thing ages ago. Just experimenting. Also I got round to scanning the human portrait study sketch. Looks much better when it's not taken at an angle

Scientists concluded that the skeleton was an 'interesting mutation' of a male human that had survived post-birth for between six and eight years

Something about that face....
It just doesn't seem right to me.

The rest looks great, though.

I love the face. It's not meant to be based off the show but I think I can see some areas for improvement such as the neck.
