New and Improved

Wow, it can’t believe it, I finally have a new computer that will allow me to type and I do not have to worry about checking every letter to see if it was entered! That’s right… I got a new computer, and it is about time.

I know, that may not be such a big deal to you all, but for me, it is. Not to knock my last computer, it lasted and hung in there for three and a half grueling years, but it was about time and dying fast. The keys were sticky and the letters worn off, the mouse pad was just about worn through, and the screen was fading by the day.

So, for the first time in a long time my words flow was quickly on the keys as through my head. I mean I am a fairly fast typist, about 60 to 70 word a minute, but only if the letters are all there as I type them. And now they are.

So, you may ask what I got… well after a but of research, it is a Toshiba Satellite A105, 1 gig RAM, 120 Gig HD, Centrino Duo Core processor, 15.5in screen, full size keyboard, the works and all very nice. It is a bit bigger than my last computer, but it should be a workhorse for the next few years.

The hardest part of getting a new computer is not working with it, it is getting everything on it that was on the old computer. Getting the data over is tedious, but it is the settings that really take forever to reset. You never really know how customized your computer is until you try to move to a new rig. I guess I will have to just keep working with it and everything will eventually work out.

But at least now I do not have to worry about moving everything before the old old crashed for the last time.
