GOOCHONLINE - Since 1999

As "payment" for some work I did on a PC, a friend said he'd give me his old laptop. His kid didn't want it because it's too slow, he wasn't using it. I was expecting one of those all white cased laptops with a monochrome display. The way it was described, I thought that I was going to have DOS installed or something.

This "relic" uses the same processor as my much coveted laptop that I lug around the apartment. I'm not into the "speed" demons so much as everyone else is. Most work I do is for the internet and the internet has years before it taxes processors from four years-ago.

Oh, my new-old laptop has Windows ME installed, which is God's way of punishing me for goofing on ME in a previous log.
