Whee for new computer!

[lizardbeth]

My credit card bill may never be the same,

BUT

I have a new laptop!!! Given it has a 17" screen it's not so much a 'notebook'). but it's beautiful and it's fast and it has plenty memory. And look, I have already managed to set up wireless, install my virus stuff, make a recovery disk, and get back on LJ! :)

oh, and it's a Blu-ray player as well. *SQUEE* (now if only Universal will drop stupid HD DVD and put BSG on Bluray instead, oh would that be yummy)

I have named her Morwen, because she's black with a little silver. Yes, LotR naming conventions die-hard, heh. I very nearly named this one Sauron, but thought that might be tempting fate...

So, wheeeeeee!

Now to dl Firefox and all the other things I can't live without. And then - oh god- transfer my music files...

that works too I suppose. *g* In Tolkien Morwen means = black-lady, so it fits. It was, among others, Theoden's mother's name.

/random Tolkien trivia.

Mwahah. Of course, the naming schemes at the Madhouse are all over the place. Roomie's scanner is Stryfe and her computer is (was?) Maddie, and the printer is Scott. The laptop is Captain Jack, and my mp3 player is Ianto, and--

There are others, and I'm sure we'll get Get Backers/Gintama names now she's gotten more into them. *g*
