Finally getting around to getting a new lappy. The good thing is this is also going to be my work computer. Now that I'm on the road more, I told my boss that I want to be able to relax when I'm out of town the way I do when I'm at home.

I think this should do just about everything under the sun that I want to do. The other good thing is that I get to write it off as a work expense for taxes to, which you can guess will help me out quite a bit.

Anyhow, I'm happy now. It's supposed to be here next week, and the new tech were hiring gets my old Thinkpad.
