Yay! I'm getting a new computer (at home)! Yesterday after work my mom's boyfriend took me to the place he always goes to, so I was able to talk to the guy he deals with all the time. There's one setup that they do, and that's what I'm getting, with just a few upgrades i.e. he's doubling the memory, and putting in a better video card). It a middle range setup, better than basic, but not "Extreme Gamer" either. I'm getting XP with some version of Office, not sure if it's going to be 2000 or something newer, a DVD Rom with burner (very cool!), and he's going to put ACDSee on it for me. At the moment I can't remember if there's anything else... oh yah!.. he has the keyboard I just got at work (the ergonomic one) in stock, so I'm getting one of those as well. Seeing as all of his business is custom make stuff, I figured it would be ready sometime next week or the week after, but it's going to be ready tomorrow!

Pat is a very happy person!! :-D
