Ah... nothing like a new computer. I brought it home and turned it on and called Time Warner to relink me. Easy as pie. Of course, now I have to get a new mouse. (Note to self: avoid Logitech.) I'd been wanting to get a new one for ages, ever since the rubber feet came off leaving sticky glue residue all over the bottom of the mouse. (It's one of those optical ones with the wheel.) Now I'm using a plain-jane spare 2-button mouse. Oh well, it will do.
Oh yeah -- and this hard drive is quiet. My old one sounded like a coffee grinder.

My PC once got a Bartybench score of 652.

Try not to feed this one as much coffee and it'll stay quiet.

Posted by: ushie at February 4, 2003 at 02:11 PMMine worked all right -- it's just that it kind of fell apart. And it never fit comfortably in my hand; and it got hot -- I don't know if that was the plastic, or the tiny light inside, or what. Now I'm using a plane, $2.99 mouse with no scroll wheel, and it's much more comfortable. Go figure.
