New Computer on the Way!

Well, as of now my NEW Dell Inspiron Mini 9 is on its way. It is currently somewhere between DFW and here. Can’t wait till I get it!

I was going to get the Acer Aspire ONE but decided I liked the build quality of the Dell Mini 9 much better. They all seem the same as far as netbooks go. I did end up sacrificing and getting an 8gb SSD drive instead of their max 16gb. This is more for portability so I’m not too worried. Also, at under 2.5 lbs I don’t think I’ll care much if I have to carry around an external drive if the need fits.

I might look into one of those “free” online storage companies. I’m sure getting use to the keyboard that is wayyyy smaller will be a challenge–so be prepared for more typos than normal!

It was just time to get rid of the HP DV1000. I dropped it back in 2006 and fried a hard drive then. Now the replacement drive, which is from 2004 or so is also going out, as did my CPU fan and it is running hot enough to cook a porterhouse on it.

Expect pics, and posts from my new toy on MONDAY!!!!
