new toy

[cdub]

After 7 years of faithful service, my laptop finally bit the big one. And this is my new replacement! It's an HP s3000e, part of their "slimline" mini towers. My budget didn't allow for any super bells and whistles but it's a significant improvement. 19" widescreen too. And aside from the annoying security messages, the Windows Vista seems pretty cool, and its running all my older programs. Probably the best part about this package is the HP keyboard believe it or not. I'm a sucker for a smooth, quiet keyboard, and the one that shipped with the machine is pretty darn good.

Whew! What a neat work station ! Was this just for photography or are you always that neat?

Ha, you can't see the end-of-the-semester pile of papers about a foot high on the other side of the desk. I shuffled those out of the way for the photo.

19 inches, sweet.
Imagine watching widescreen movie on it.

Sorry, Hien. I'm afraid things won't change when May arrives. John's just *that* way.
