7lb of Computing Bliss

After nearly four years with my current system, it’s finally time to invest in new computer hardware (it really wasn’t much of a choice, since I’ve had unpleasant luck with this beast recently, including a severing of the display flexiwire and a cracking of the case that have made it essentially immobile as it holds onto a life that very well could be very short). I decided, after council from my friend Mark, to choose a Dell Inspiron 8600, a model that Mark recently ordered for himself. It should last me close to another half decade with my minimal computer power needs.

Now you know the device through which I’ll be communicating to you with in 7-10 days. I’m more than a little excited at the increased mobility and flexibility the new system will allow me, especially when it comes to writing at work, where I currently rely on my Sony Clie for anything that needs to be typed.
