Housemate required.


We have the funkiest house in the world.

There's three of us - two geeks and a rabbit.
We're looking, probably, for another geek, but anyone easy going , meat friendly, smoke friendly, friendly. Did we mention easy going?
$500 per calendar month, which also covers our cleaner once a month. Shared bills (~ $50 pcm).
We're in Collingwood - handy for Smith St, Brunswick St, etc.
Available 1st November.
Own hub a plus.

Technically I own a third of a rack, and intend to buy thorf and bron out and bring it home one day.
Rack space isn't so much the problem - they stack neatly - but the 10/100 switching hub downstairs is so out of ports it's not funny.

SO a hub would be better, but a rack is always handy.

Mind you, buying a 16 port switching 10/100 hub would be cheaper than buying out the rest of the rack.

Hmm...
You thinking of moving to Melbourne, then?

Not before the end of next year, most likely. hobbes reckons that's when she'll get bored of Canberra and want to go back to Melbourne. Probably a bit outside of your ideal timeframe, I suspect.

As for the hub thing - I do have a spare 16 port hub (10Mbit, not switching) that I can (probably) send down with hobbes next time she comes to visit. You want?

YEah, end of next year is "paid off the debts, think about overseas trip" time :)
A hub would ba ace - even a 10 base will take the strain off the overflowing downstairs hub.
Half the machines downstairs won't benefit from 100 anyway - the Mac, the indys, the HP.
Either because they don't support it, or because they're just not used enough.

Hobbes (and Megan for that matter) is perfectly happy to compromise on the not moving to canberra thing :)

So given there is a nice room and a nice job waiting... hmm.. much easier option :) move to melbourne instead!

it is a really really nice house

/me wonders if megan would dissaprove of a rack...

I like this plan!

We already established that any move to Melbourne has to be after April next year. :)

Depends what you're using as a comparator.
