Me? A nerd?.. Well,I ain't denying it....

Well folks.. lets all put March 23rd on our calendars... ..

Why?! Because that's the estimated delivery date for my new computer.

I work as a computer tech by day, and my personal home computer has been around for nearly 10 years. In those 10 years she's repaired, coaxed, and cajoled in to providing me more than I could have asked. She's entitled to retirement, and I'm entitled to have to listen to a 'jet engine' cooling system whine in to life as I check my email..

So my solution comes from Dell.ca. I spent more $$$ than I really should have... but hey, I'll only live once.

Sorry to do this to you but... here's the machine I'm getting.
