New PC

[Taffycat]

Just wanted to share the news that our new PC was delivered about 15 mins ago! We've taken it out of the packaging to have a look .... WOW! So many wires... and so many places to plug 'em!!

We were a bit concerned at first, because a bit of the outer box was broken and there was a large footprint on it, as though somebody had given it a shove with their "size 9" - peering through the tear, I could see part of the back grille Anyway, it seems to be ok - phew! However I can't try it out yet, because we still haven't got the monitor - how disorganized can one get

They have included the Vista CD - as advertised, so that's good, it should be pre-installed, they said that it would be.

Anyway, I'd better trot off and sort things out a bit now

Wheeeeeeee! Cartwheel... Backflip ..... (cough - well I would if I could )

Thank you Mucks - although it's more of an anniversary celebration a couple of days late It was our 35th last Tuesday, so very good timing really.

We might be tempted to leave the monitor hunt 'til tomorrow now though, because the traffic is going to be a pain heading into the City at this time Still, it gives me time to have a look through all the booklets and what not that came with it, and to familiarise myself with it's rear-end (meaning all the little socket gubbins ) All exciting stuff

AB - well I would plug in the old monitor, if we had one We've never had a desktop before, just laptops

I had to stop our pet Dragon from fire-breathing - he kept scortching the curtains

It saved you from pressing them before hanging them up or is it down

This is true.... which then gave me more time to concentrate on my spelling (thinking of that 't' which strayed into 'scorching' ..... ooops!)
