Added a new piece of kit to the family! Say hello to my Canon EOS 7S!!! (Also known as the EOS 30V and ELAN 7NE)
P.S. Shoutouts to #MitchLally who made an amazing video on the 7S, which kinda helped sway me into picking this little gem of a camera up.

I went down the #ebay #ebitch hole last week, and found a #computer #workstation with a #Supermicro X8DA3 #Motherboard and a #Tableau T3458is #tableau #forensic Bridge
Shipping across the continent though - and how do you think it was packed?
The damage to the plastic top of the workstation case, which is now falling off - though still connected by the wires going to the #USB & #firewire ports in the lid. Some loose cables and screws fell out when opening the case.
Reached out to the seller for #return and they offered to send a replacement. Waiting to see what is next...

Scored an #ebay_find for a replacement CD/DVD drive - ended up upgrading to the #DVD-RW / #CD-RW combo drive (FRU 39T2829).
The current CD-RW has the "phantom" eject issue, where the tray ejects without any prompting. My research online indicates the eject button on the drive is messed up some way, and the easiest approach is to swap out the drive. The seller accepted my counter offer, and with shipping it was a no brainier.
Now, we wait...
