my first computer

this may seem ridiculous..... but i got my first computer on Monday. it is a swanky little laptop. i got through college with a word processor. i have always been provided a computer at work. dave and i bought one together YEARS ago, but he mostly used it. until it became obsolete. which i guess it is. it is actually kind of exciting to have this new computer. i want to touch it. just because. it's pleasing that it's mine all mine. it does make me feel a wee bit like a consumer whore, but i'm getting over it. it comes with lots of free game trials and so far dave and i have played 'kill the aliens invading the fishtank whist you keep your fish from dying' as well as 'bowling with a Polar Bear dressed like a Hawaiian (and I mean you really bowl WITH him...like the bear is the ball)'.

i'm telling you....whole new worlds are opening up for me.

Whoa, fabulous. What kind is it? Processor speed? RAM? Hard disk space? Monitor size? Preloaded applications?

It is a Compaq Presario V4435NR. Twas a $180 discount at Best Buy. Sweet. 1.7 Ghz Pentium M Centrino Processor, 80 gig hard drive, 512megs of RAM, 15.4" widescreen display, ability to burn DVD's and CD's! Preloaded items were fairly minimal, however I seem to have everything that I need. I have already watched movies on her. :) And she's pretty. Dave even likes her.
