    Dopey got a reaction from Imabigmac in PC Building Disasters & Close Calls   
    I spilled tea on one of my older rigs and didn't notice how far it went down until I saw dried up tea all over the wall/back of the rig a couple days later bahaha.
     
    I also find myself continually reaching into my case while my rig is still on and my knuckles always have a little skirmish with the case fans.

    Well, it is only 99 cent a song, how much money could apple get? lol. I use itunes because most of the artist are like" come get our song at itunes, or official website". I've never use the other but I can tell iTunes is pretty good, some songs are as cheap as 69 cent. And man, why do some songs at Beatport cost 50 cents more?

    Massdrop has the 28 oz Blender Bottle available in black, blue, and red for $4.99 at the lowest drop. This is a great deal if you use protein shakes but personally I'm buying this to make lemonade haha.

    You are convinced you need it to keep going, but you don't. Don't stop immediately, reduce the quantity every week or so, and you'll get rid of it soon.

    Ya I have a Samsung 480 128GB SSD as the boot drive on my dell, even though it's only SATA 2 capable it still helped a lot, Obviously that's not enough space, which is why I have the 250GB drive in the DVD drive bay,.
     
    I'm also an avid Skydrive user, my documents and pictures folders are directed to there so everything is always backed up.
     
    Yup, already do that, Micro USB cable and wall charger for my Note II and a Micro USB to Lightning adapter in my wallet so I have both covered.
     
    Another Laptop Charger is a good idea, Though I don't want to be robbed by Apple so I'll check elsewhere for the Magsafe charger
     
    Ya I figured that I already don't do much gaming as it is, and all the CPU intensive stuff can be handled by my dell, if not I can always remote to my machines.
     
    Ya I'll probably bring my speakers, nothing special but they work. http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-970264-0403-X-140-2-0-Speakers/dp/B000IF4788/
     
    Good call on the HDMI cable, I'll bring my Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter too!
    I got one from Monoprice that has Displayport, DVI, and HDMI so I'm covered! 
     
    Hence why I'm bringing 2 phones, if Verizon doesn't have signal, I have T-Mo, if one drains, I can use the other!
    I'll probably bring some spare assorted cables, obviously some USB sticks, spare headphones

    I don't currently dorm at this very moment, I drive down everyday but I'm literally at my friends' dorm all the time and have stayed many nights... enough to basically live in the dorms. I'm dorming next year if that helps but I have enough experience to tell you the basics of what you'll need as a techy.
     
    This is what I have:
    My ultrabook, extra iphone USB cables, smart phone (my 5s), external gaming mouse, mousepad, a headset along with a good pair of in ear earphones..
    What I've learned is that you should always have extra usb cables along with an extra set of earphones.
     
    I see you've got the router..
    For the ethernet adapter, its better to be safe than sorry. It's great knowing you have it and it just being there in case, rather than worrying about not having one.
    I personally replaced my 1tb hdd in my ultrabook with a 120gb ssd which I'm planning to upgrade to a higher capacity soon. Obviously bring a storage drive to back up all your data, if not it's a good idea emailing major projects and such to yourself so you KNOW they're there.
    Kudos on the free office, I'm using kingsoft D:
     
    In your backpack, and trust me on this, keep a usb cable for your phone w/ charger, a backup battery bank for your phone or something, a nice pair of earphones.. aa extra laptop charger would be much more convenient because I only bring my ultrabook to class without the charger and I run it pretty close at times (I never bring it because its situated in a pretty tight spot and its a hassle to constantly grab and put back).
     
    Props to you leaving your rig at home. You aren't going to touch that thing once second semester comes around because you'd probably be playing smash bros or something with a bunch of friends, or studying.. or along the lines of having a life (;
     
    Maybe bring a nice pair of speakers/subs? I don't have any but my friends both got some logitech z313's (I think) in their dorm and they pound.
    HDMI cable to hook it up to a tv for movies and such?
     
    Just keep in mind spares are key. You're also going to be on your smartphone A LOT.. they are life savers.
    I don't know if this applies to all dorms, but the dorms at my school are quite small. So keep that in mind if the dorms you are moving into are also small.
     
    If I can think of anything else, I'll add more.. I just got off a long day of school/work so my mind isn't quite fully here baha.

    At my school, the head of IT was a wonderful troll, he used to allow students to wear headphones as long as you did not disrespect him by listening to music when he was speaking.
     
    Obviously some students would disobey and have the headphones on when he was addressing the class, he would not say anything but instead wait for the perfect opportunity to use remote desktop and suddenly open max volume audio files of horrible screaming noises on the PCs of those students. :lol:
     
    I've saw some jolting heads in that class lol, the newbs who knew not of his ways.
