I'm sad! My regular computer is in the shop. I'm stuck with my
Dell XPS R350, PII, 256MB RAM and Windows 2000 Pro. I'm having them install an NVidia Force Graphics card with 128MB RAM, an Asus DVD RW and do some general maintenance. I might get it back today though!! I mean, Windows 2000 Pro is ok but I want my main computer back. :cry:

16. I felt the same when I was waiting for a new keyboard for the TiBook,
and had to use the old G3 PB with only a 14-inch screen!

Oh, the suffering! Oh, the humanity!
