New Year, New PC Updates

Yes, I've spent time and a little cash on my PC again. This time it's the Toshiba tablet that I've updated. The processor is pretty good but I didn't have much in the way of RAM so I upgraded it to 2 GB and also doubled the harddrive size to 160 GB (and a much faster 7200 RPM drive). Seems to be working fine now but the true test will come when I start manipulating significantly sized files (like pictures or DVD video). I don't do a heck of a lot of that stuff but it's nice to have a bit more capability whenever I do. Besides, it's kinda fun to mess with PC's. Still haven't made the plunge to get a Mac and make a dual boot machine (but I did buy a copy of WinXP for the dual boot ... really don't want to mess with the whole Vista bloatware thing).

Plan to go out dancing tomorrow night (somewhere in Davenport) and probably have dinner out as well. Meanwhile, tonight, although it is Friday, may just be a "stay in" night as I'm pretty tired and feeling like a cold is in the offing here.

Later ...
