New Computer!
I put an Ad in Craiglist and this fellow retired Vet had a computer he wasn't using. It's about 3 years old Dell, has Vista on it (ew) and so I ordered an h/d adapter to transfer my stuff to this hard drive.
Well ... after I get hold of a copy of Windows 7. Vista's complaints weren't undue, ya know? Anyway, I'd like to redo the entire set-up. The fella who gave me the compy will be by maybe this weekend or next week with the CDs (like Vista and other Dell shit).
But, I think I'd rather not wait to install 7. If anyone's got a copy to send me by mail, that'd be great, but I'll d/l a copy of it from the same dude who gave out photoshop and XP, Vista, other important software. Has been reliable for me so far. This time I have to make sure I have enough room on my 4gb flash/d
So happy news! The downside will be setting up, reinstalling, moving, naming, etc. Like setting up a whole new office. Oy. But a happy oy. Now if the new OS will stop distracting me with pretty but useless visual stuff and just let me do what the hell I wanna do... Win 7 better not be this bad. /snerk/
In a month, I hope I'll be writing and finishing. Yay!
