New Case! I moved to a new case!
It looks amazing, but one of the byproducts of the move is that internal USB card reader is not working.
Will post some pics as soon as I get it to work again.
School horror stories: my dad attended a military academy in the early 40s. The bunks were made of iron. During winter it got so cold in the barracks that if you fell asleep touching any part of your cot or bunk your skin would stick to it. If you moved while asleep you ripped your skin off. True story, or so I've been told.
