Computer geek extarodinaire, I love to tinker with gadgets and tech items to get them to do what I want. I'm either logically artistic or artisically logical. I'm also rude, crude, semi-barbaric, socially unacceptable, and totally psychotic. On the bright side - I am potentially harmless. I'm currently trying to write some short stories about the fae as well as a novel on those same fae as well as two other novels. The programs I have for photo and image editing are: Photoimpact from Ulead, Adobe Photoshop 7 and Corel Paint Shop Pro 2X. Recently I've added DAZ Studios as well as Terragen, Blender and Google Sketch to my list of programs crowding my hard-drive.  All this and much more on an old Pentium III 450 with 396 Megs of memory and operating Windows XP. It does get interesting at time.As of December 26, 2008, I have added Vue 7 Pioneer to my list of reason of why I'm going insane.
As of January 2010 I upgraded to a new HP 2 dual core processor with 6 gigs onboard mem with 4 gig powerboost and 2.07 terabytes of Hard drivesMy email is faemike55@gmail.com

GREAT CAPTURE

Oh, how cool, Mike! But what kind of alien device is this, anyway?? Even more amazing.... It's clean with no graffiti, half eaten sandwiches, half empty wine bottles, or funny latex things laying on the little shelf.. I remember years ago when I was doing field service work.... These things were everywhere..... Can't even begin to remember how many quarters I lost in these things.... This must be one of the 10 or so still in existance.

What a rare find with the new technology of cell phones these have been outdated and removed in many areas. Aw I remember .25cents for local calls and running out of time on long distance, only to hear the live operater asking for more money. That was part of the good ole days!!
wrpspeed
looks like an early atm to me :)

(cool shot anywho! gave me a laff!)

Man! I havn't seen, or used one of those in years...damn cellphones, now if you don't have a cell, your screwed...the change of times I guess...
Foink
Great shot...these will soon be antiques!!!
Bothellite
What a flash-back. Relied totally on those things when the pager ("bellboy") went off. Knew my route and where all of them were. Plus, needed a dime.
danapommet
4 minutes for a $1 - and I remember when it was a dime and you got an operator.
tigertim
