+ <h2>mother</h2>
+ <p>
+ <b>mother</b> is my main computer. It's a desktop I bought
+ a long time ago and that I have improved over time. To the
+ day of writing, only the motherboard, CPU, and I guess the
+ box are original from the day of the purchase. Nearly
+ everthing else has been replaced/added over time. I like
+ this box, but even the motherboard and CPU are expected to
+ be changed at some point because it is ancient, if not
+ antique.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ It's name, <b>mother</b>, is a reference to the on-board
+ computer in the first Alien movie. It's a great film, go
+ take a look.

+ <b>mars</b>, formerly <b>fbsd-tp</b>, has now become my

+ This computer is a ThinkPad T530 and I love it.
+ Unfortunately I bought it used and the previous owner
+ forgot to tell me there was an ugly turtle tattooed on
+ the rear side. This is my only complain. It's not too
+ visible but it's there. The deal was quick, there was
+ not much lighting and the seller opened the screen right
+ away, so I didn't see that ugly turtle until I was home
+ with my new computer.
