My shinning new computer

After replacing 2 hard drives, 2 mother boards, a memory module, 2 power adapters, a fan, a heat sink, a keyboard, a case lid, 2 power button covers,  and reloading Windows 4 times,  Dell decided to send me a new computer.   They had to “build”  it though and that took 3 weeks.

I just got the new computer, it’s black, shiny, has twice the memory as my old one, a faster processor, twice the storage capacity,  a web cam, a microphone, and is running Windows 7.

I’m grateful for the upgrade but one thing is missing…..no modem.     And since I connect through a dial-up it’s sort of useless to me at this point.   I called up Dell and they said I had to buy an external modem from them.    So that’s on the way, but I’m fixing to leave.

I’m heading out to the trail soon and I can’t wait to leave this computer business  behind me.    I’ve been away much too long.

  1. Have fun on the trail. I’m looking forward to getting out there in a couple weeks. Summertime, trees, drinking from fresh springs and nothing to do but walk. I can’t wait!
