I am whole again.

I am now the proud owner of a brand new Toshiba Satelite laptop. I got a pretty good price for it off of Best Buy’s site, and so far, I’m pleased. I just have to get everything back up and running. Dreamweaver, Frontpage, Paint Shop, Winamp, BSplayer, Divx, Xvid, Media Player Classic, and all those other programs I just can’t live without. Once that’s all done, and I’m content with the configuration and state of my new lappy, I can get some work done on this website. I just have to get used to the new keyboard, because even though the tab key is in the same location, my brain wants to believe that it’s further over, since this laptop is a widesceen model and all of the keys are shifted slightly to the right. I miss my pointing stick on my old laptop already. I really want to know who thought that touch pads should be on every laptop in existence, because I really do think that the elusive pointing stick is vastly superior. My old laptop had one, and it was much better than a touchpad or a trackball. Not as good as an optical mouse, but pretty good for a built in pointing device. I think they should manufacture more laptops with the pointing stick. In the end, it just means I’ll be using my mouse a lot more than before.
