So I'm typing this up (finally) on my new computer here at the bookstore! It's very nice - 17" flat-screen monitor with a lovely desktop image of a world map showing the time zones. I feel like I work at NORAD. Anyhoo, the new computer didn't really want to get set up; for a while it flat-out denied any knowledge of the main server, which was problematic. However, we are now friends. I did have to find a new home for my plastic cobra, which used to adorn the top of my monitor, but the new machine's tower has a raised lip along the top of it, and the snake now peers raffishly over the top of that. Oh, and the mouse on this computer seems to work, which is a novelty.
