Yes, I'm typing to you from my new laptop!!! WOW, this is FUN! And I even checked out Webkinz already. It's amazing how much faster this machine is - the Wheel of Wow would spin for a full 5 minutes on my old desktop...now I see that it's supposed to actually spin for all of like 15 seconds.

So for now, we'll just look officey. If anyone has any great ideas (ahem...Jean2!), please...I'm all ears!
I didn't opt to install MS Office. I just couldn't justify the expense when there's a *free* look-alike that supposedly works just as well, if not better, than MS Office (and you all know what a
My only problem now is which new toy to play with first?? GPS...laptop...GPS...laptop...decisions, decisions.
