It's been quite a day. As mentioned previously I went out to buy the necessary RJ45 plugs. After that the network was up and running again in under 15 minutes. And surprise, surprise: everything worked fine. The router is routing, computers are computing, no glitches so far. *knocks on wood*
The only computer left is that of my little sister, but I reckon it won't give me that much problems.
Whilst out to buy the plugs I hopped over to a local games shop. I was greeted by a very friendly and nice girl. We had quite a long chat about our origins (I don't exactly look Dutch, though I quite am), our favorite games and how The Netherlands actually quite sucks when it comes to releases. During the talk I noticed the stack of Dreamcast games they had at the counter. She told me they weren't for sale, as they were the "collection" of a co-worker. I pressed a little and then she actually admitted no-one had touched those games for over 2 years.
And so, one quick phone call later, she and her co-worker had decided to sell the games anyway. At 20 euros a pop. So 20 euros later I bagged myself a fresh new copy of Street Fighter Alpha 3. :) I will be returning to the shop one day. All nice and friendly atmosphere, and quite a good selection of games. I like it there.
What else is there to say? Well, I just found out I'll be house-sitting this weekend, as my folks are making a "quick" visit to Lille this weekend. There's supposed to be some huge flea-/antiques-market there. So I guess that covers my upcoming weekend. *sigh*
