I must say, I do kind of wish you guys were more open about your problems, it certainly would have made me feel a lot less "alone" in this department... :smirk:

But anyway, I AM happy to say I DO FINALLY have a new machine waiting for me in the layaway, and I'm so looking forward to it, it's going to be nice having 4G of RAM for a change as opposed to 512MB now that 512MB hasn't been impressive since 2006... I just hope that it can properly adjust to a 4:3 screen resolution, as most models I've looked and browsed at are 50/.50... either they can properly adjust (in like a letter-box format), or it just stretches across the entire monitor and looks wonky.

BTW, does anyone know why touchpads are so "rough" now? I mean, what's up with the texture made to look and match the rest of the design? I find it difficult to move the cursor around when it feels like your finger is truing to make it's way through a braile convention...

I think in most cases in life if you have a problem, it's a good chance that most others have had it too.

Oh Snowthy.... you really shouldn't advertise THOSE kinds of hobbies on such a "family friendly" site. :embarrassed:

In other, non-muffining knews, (knews? news? Gnus?) I recently got my computer working after a year of non-work. Who gnu computers made such good money on unemployment?
