Where I have been on my new YouTube page (Drew's Videos)


Please click on "Read More" to read this rather long blog post. Ignore this line of text if you already clicked on the "Read More" link.

Please note that I have not forgotten about the "New Channel Welcome Video" and that I will eventually get it released. My tower I was processing it on is not really the kind of computer for video rendering, as it has a Pentium 4 processor with 3 GB of RAM, (technically, Windows XP reports it as 2.99 GB, but, close enough.) Currently, I am in the process of shopping online and in local stores for components for a new computer. The real reason why I haven't done anything on it for MONTHS is because the ground prong on my surge protector came out of the plug. I'll be buying a UPS in the future after I buy everything I need for my tower.

I'm not the kind of person to boast about computer power to just anyone, but, if you want to know, it will have 4 GB of RAM to start off with, an Intel CPU (Maybe i3; if that's too expensive for me, I could actually just get a new Pentium if that supports everything,) Intel Integrated Graphics for now until I have enough money for a dedicated graphics card, at least one 500 GB Hard drive, a DVD burner, etc. For the Operating System, it will have Ubuntu for video processing and everything besides Windows development. Later I will be adding a second Hard disk and putting Windows 8 on it; I know Dual-Booting Windows 8/8.1 and really any Linux distro is tough to accomplish. If Windows 7 can develop for Windows Phone 8 with those hacks out there, I'll take my chance with 7 and Ubuntu rather than have nightmares with 8.1 vs Ubuntu.

The reason I am choosing Linux first on it is just to save $100+ on the new computer that would otherwise have Windows. Also, I'm just tired of "Windows Everywhere" on every computer (and also Windows malware and stuff like that.)

So, just because I haven't done anything in a while on here doesn't mean I'm not going to release more videos. :)
