New Discoveries

I have news. And it is amazing.

I finally, FINALLY have my laptop, right here with me now.

And in doing so, I’ve discovered this nifty little software called ‘Windows Live Writer’ where I can simply type my blog posts from my computer desktop and I won’t even have to log onto my page anymore. Or well, I will, but I won't be doing it as often as I normally do. Hence, this will allow me to stop having to go to my blog page first and lying to all my readers whenever they see my Traffic Jam meter. :D

So no, guys, I do not in fact have that many readers from Perth. I’m sorry for having misled you all this time, but it for the good of the blog.

I've just realised how jakun I sounded typing that out. Software engineers and computer fanatics everywhere must be shaking their heads at me, even as I type.

Meanwhile, I’m currently going through all the programmes that are on my little miracle and praising the high heavens that after all the panic the stupid company gave us when they informed us of a late delivery, it finally came earlier than the expected date. =)

I’m still looking for a laptop sleeve/glove for it though, as well as hopefully a skin so that the rather ultra shiny surface of the laptop won’t get scratched. And come to think of it, it is pretty shiny compared to other laptops. Or maybe I’m just comparing it to the Lenovo Thinkpad. Which is a rather dull, heavy ass laptop mind you.

I’ve just realised I haven’t mentioned what it is – it’s a Dell 1310. I actually really wanted the Studio 15 laptop (*sigh*)and was pretty persistent about it despite Dad trying to hammer in the fact that I would have to carry it with me.
Then I did some research and had a good think about it. And I realised that carrying 2kgs worth of electronic device for 8 hours around a campus about as big as KL city itself wasn’t exactly the smartest thing to do.
So in spite of the overbearing weight of the Studio 15, I ended up chosing the somewhat lighter Inspiron 1310. I have some regrets about choosing this one because it's not the one I had my heart and mind stubbornly set on. But I think that'll be the only regret I have because I think I still want my spine upright, and in it's usual curved S-shape by the time I hit 30.

Anywho, back to playing around with my New Discovery…
