I have come to the conclusion nothing makes you feel more stupid than new technology. Don't get me wrong, I love fiddling with some new techy toy (I had to go look that up and see if I spell that correctly) it's like working on a new 1000 piece puzzle, double sided with the same picture on both sides. Boy those are a hoot, who thought THAT was a good idea?
Anyway, I now have a new computer with all the bells and whistles or at least compared to my old system. So I am fiddling for hours trying to figure out where they put the damn print icon, I still haven't figured out where to save my favorites and the explorer view is giving me a headache. But damn, the thing is fast! LOVE THAT! I don't have to wait for an hour to update my web programming and I can even open more than one window at a time. OOOOOhhhhh...I am giddy.
This should keep me busy for at least 2-3 years, just in time for the new, latest and greatest to be released. Then I get to do this again.
Side note: Since I have a new computer, of course I have Vista. It's the new operating system out there so that is what came with set-up. I watched this commercial from Microsoft on TV yesterday about this new software called "Mojave" that they had real people try out. I felt my stomach drop, shit! I just bought this PC and they have a new operating systems I am going to have to upgrade to...and I am not even close to mastering this one. But then they revealed the ploy, it was Vista. It was to show people not to be afraid of Vista, try it out. I shuddered in relief. Wow, dodged that bullet.

Okay, I'm jealous. Not that our system is old (2 yrs but in techno years that's like 10 yrs). I was at a friends house last night and they had this huge monitor. I was green. Our monitor is like our TV, we got it because in fit in the desk hutch space.
Post a picture of your new arrival so we can all tell you how cute it is!
