I got a new PC at work today.

[terrya]

More memory, cool flat screen monitor. I was happy.

That's it. That's all I wanted to say.

Carry on.

1. Does the cpu have a kind of a retro look

I got a new computer at work, at Optiplex something or other. In fact, I'm staying late at work right now because it's so much faster than my computer at home.

[terrya]

2. Well....it's a Dell.

Hey, the damn thing is free. I didn't get any say so on what kind of pc I was getting.

[Midlodemocrat]

20. Mine is too, and it's also free.

Hell, it could be a WANG, if it's free!!!

[Call Me Wesley]

3. Cool! Did you create a new desktop pic, too?

[terrya]

4. That IS cool!

I need to create something like that. That is NICE. :-)

Mostly today was just setting everything up.

:hi:

[Call Me Wesley]

8. Have fun with it!

And a good night from afar, my friend! :hug:

[terrya]

10. Thank you.

I will. :-)

And you have a good night also, my friend. And please give Heidi a :hug: from me, as well.

:hug:

16. Is that vista?

[Call Me Wesley]

17. Not Vista, just a desktop addon:

19. Nice!!

I've tried WindowBlinds, but removed it because it is a resource hog...and I built me a new PC with WinXPSp2 AMD 64x2 4800+ with 2g ram.

How does Winstep do? Does it slow everything down?

[Call Me Wesley]

21. No slow down I'm aware off.

I just can't customize it like I want to, but that's it. When I get tired of it, I get rid of it. :hi:

[Dont_Bogart_the_Pretzel]

23. Thanks

I got it and your right :thumbsup: ...doesn't slow my pc down either.

[bigwillq]

5. Yippee!

Good for you!

:hi:

[terrya]

6. And....

I'll get my old pc. They're supposed to erase the hard drive and everything. I was able to buy it for $25. I have a perfectly good home pc, but what the hell? Why not? :-)

:hi:

[bigwillq]

7. Good deal.

:hi:

[Blue-Jay]

9. NICE!

Get one for me too!

[terrya]

11. I'll see what I can do!

No promises, though...

[Blue-Jay]

12. Thanks, my friend.

No pressure, though. I don't really need one, but I wouldn't turn it down either.

[greatauntoftriplets]

22. Do you want my old one???

I don't know what's wrong with it, but my computer-savvy DU lurker friend (who you've met) says it'd liekly work okay with a new hard drive.

It's yours if you want it. Trying to figure out how to get rid of it.

[IntravenousDemilo]

13. Does that mean you can finally take the old one home?

shmily

[terrya]

15. After they erase the hard drives.

Then yes, I can take the old one home.

SHMILY

[IntravenousDemilo]

18. Yaaaaay!

Finally...

[Lisa0825]

14. I'm getting a new one soon, but....

when I get it, its going to have the ne "company specs." That means monitoring and blocking software. :evilfrown:
