Jeff G. and I worked in the museum today from 8am-3pm. Jeff B. joined me for more work from 5pm-9pm. In the daytime slot, we installed the large monitor donated by David G. last year. It is 50" (horizontally) and works great. We put a shelf under it (great place for a videogame console to keep us entertained between museum visitors!) along with two shelves on the opposite side of the bench (with room for more shelves later if needed). We also did some set-up with the Prime 6550, added a handle (kind of silly-looking, but it works!) to the PDP-11/785, set up most of the office PC, and finished cabling the microcomputers. We also did some clean-up work. In the evening, we did a bunch more cleanup, rebuilt some of the outdoor signs for VCF East, and tested the Amstrad PPC 640 (it works but we need a system disk). Also, we got two more industrial-strength long power strips from Steve A., so now there are two on each side of the microcomputer aisle. That means nothing is daisy-chained, unlike in our old rooms. We just need one more for the workbench. Corey's picking that up in the next few days. Here are some pictures: http://vcfed.org/evan/screen.jpg (pipe on the right side is in front of a speaker, not the screen itself) http://vcfed.org/evan/powerpole.jpg (this is the new power pole on its own own 20A circuit for the center aisle of microcomputers, it has four outlets on the side, and next time we'll paint the wooden block underneath it to match the floor) http://vcfed.org/evan/handle.jpg (new handle -- also a new lock) http://vcfed.org/evan/galinat.jpg (kudos to Jeff G. for making a lot of long trips to the museum and doing tons of manual labor for us lately) http://vcfed.org/evan/protect.jpg (step away from the blue box...) http://vcfed.org/evan/allbench.jpg (new shelves on left, new shelf under TV too) http://vcfed.org/evan/twoshelves.jpg (room for expansion) http://vcfed.org/evan/oneshelf.jpg (let the Pong commence) Back at it this weekend! Need to set up another computer or two, put the decorative backings on all the microcomputer shelving units, start making the signs, do more cleaning, and who knows what else.
