Advanced Computers #1, Wednesday Afternoon 7/12
The computer lab desks were shoved to the side today and the walls on each side were now individual cubbys. Each cubby had a red tool box with the students name written on the side.
Abby stood by the door and pointed towards the walls as the students entered. "Find your cubby and take a seat. If you have a laptop on you, pull it out. If you don't, see me to get a loner from the school."
"Alright, I think we're set." After everyone was settled Abby moved to the front of the classroom and smiled at everyone. "Welcome to Advanced Computers. For those of you I don't know, I'm Professor Abby and I'm a forensic specialist for NCIS or naval criminal investigative service. A large portion of my work deals with computers and computer technology. This session we're going to focus on some of the more advanced aspects of computer technology such as modifications, repair, website creation, and hacking. We should have a blast!"
"First thing we're going to do today is a little game show I'm going to call Pimp my Comp. If you've never seen the popular tv show with a similar name, it involves a group of mechanics who take a car and trick it out. New rims, fur seats and bumping sound systems. They always throw in something wild like a jacuzzi in the back of a station wagon or a smoothie bar in a VW bug. That's what we're going to be doing today."
"Your tools boxes are full of things you're going to need to pimp out a computer. You've got software, hardware tools, manuals, and little surprises. You've got to the end of this workshop to trick out a computer and then you get a chance to present it to the class. The winner of the most pimped outride computer gets their very own pimp cane." Abby held up a stick covered in glittery computer chips and topped with a mouse spray painted gold. "So get to it, guys!"
"Oh, one last thing. You're not pimping out your own computers. Everyone trade!"
[ooc: I'm not assigning partners since I don't know who has what time zones, so just pick someone to trade. Toolbox contents are handwavy. Should have useful computer tools, cd rom's of programs, and decorative pimp-like bits and whatever else you need.Wait for OCD threads. Have fun!]

Re: Switch Computers
and a brief random OMGLOOKALIKE moment. "I'm ordering myself a new one this week anyway, so you might as well try and win the pimp cane."[OOC: WTF, LJ notifications, WTF?!? Now, with the right icon, even.]
Re: Switch Computers
gigging inwardly over the icon. "I want to get one too, so I can stop borrowing from the school."Re: Switch Computers
who really needs more icons like thathanded over his own laptop and started contemplating what to do to Sam's. "Well, I haven't yet. But I'm going to, right after this. I know a couple of places to go online, but Abby said I should try All and Sundries first, and I have a few things to get in town anyway. I'll let you know how that goes."He propped his chin up on his hands and considered. It needed red. Definitely more red. Because everything was better with more red.
