I’m impressed

The laptop hard drive, which was ordered after 3 PM yesterday, and which I was told by the Compaq help desk person to not expect until Monday, maybe even Tuesday, arrived before 9 o’clock this morning. I probably won’t even attempt to work on that until Monday anyway though, as I’m leaving at noon today to head out of town and do the holiday celebration with the in-laws this weekend. I’m looking forward to it!

In other news, there’s a new logo type thingy on the lower left hand column.

Basically, the only right I hold in full reserve is the right to commercial use of the content here, and the right to require attribution if you copy the content for your own non-commercial use. Pretty simple, really, and now you all know where we stand, eh? 🙂

(Not that I really have any intention of making this a commercial site, but really, it’s my content, if anyone gets to do that, it should be me!)

    The office is closing a couple of hours early today to give everyone a head start on their Thanksgiving holiday.

    Thanks to Cam World for pointing out this $399 computer from Walmart. When did Wally’s World start selling PC’s with no OS? That’s not a bad deal at all, seems like a pretty powerful machine, but no network card sort of sucks. That can be dealt with. I’ve never used a Microtel machine, anyone have…

    I installed the new Google Toolbar yesterday on my work machine. I have made a somewhat half-hearted attempt to use IE a bit more than usual, but not a whole lot more since then, just to see how many popups it blocks. As of 1:30 this afternoon the count is 42. So I wonder, exactly…

    I had planned on posting something yesterday. I had planned on doing a lot of things yesterday that I never quite got done.
