When I'm not at school hacking away on Tarski (or, more likely, hanging out in the lobby), I'm at home on Maxwell. Maxwell is a Pentium 133 with 64MB of RAM and a 2.5GB hard drive. E runs GNU/Linux; e is connected to the Internet via a PPP link over a 33.6kbps modem. For my Internet access, I use East Kentucky Internet. maxwell runs the following software:


On the hardware side, maxwell contains the following:

There are stickers on the front which say "This system powered by Kington TurboChip" (it's not), "18000V" (right above the power switch; it came from the inside of a monitor, I believe), "MAXWELL" (on one of the unused drive bays), "Void warranty if removed" (right next to the "MAXWELL" sticker), "master" (below the reset button), and "copy" (below the currently-disconnected turbo button). There's also an official Commodore chickenhead (taken from a C64) to the left of the (currently-disconnected) keylock (where the MHz LED display would be). Finally, there's an Apple sticker (with the multicoloured apple) on the top (on the frame inside the case, not the case itself; you can only see it if you leave the case off).


See my config page for some of tarski's configuration files. They are based on maxwell's, to an extent.
