1.25.2006 Computered. In the end, all it took to get my new laptop was the threat of legal smackdown. Remember that, kids: the trick to dealing with assholes is all in proper use of the words "federal crime" in a sentence. I am now the proud owner of a silvery-shiny 15" Powerbook that I've taken to calling "Norrin Radd." As that's a bit cumbersome, I might end up shortening to one word - because when you're naming an appliance, how the words roll off the tongue is a prime concern. At any rate, my new baby came loaded with a couple thousand dollars worth of design software, making the month-long wait kinda sorta worth it. Now I just need to get my data from Doombot, which is floating helplessly on an Apple store hard drive, and it'll be back to business as usual. Only this time, actually doing stuff. Back to it. posted by chris # 6:26 PM Comments: Post a Comment << Home 02.04 03.04 04.04 05.04 06.04 07.04 08.04 10.04 11.04 12.04 01.05 02.05 03.05 04.05 05.05 06.05 07.05 08.05 10.05 11.05 12.05 01.06 02.06 03.06 04.06 06.06 07.06 08.06
