New Laptop
I just got home and the UPS lady delivered my brand new Acer Aspire 1414 laptop. It is the best $800 I ever spent. The screen is so bright and nice that it puts others to shame. The processor is fast enough for me a Celeron M 1.33 GHz, 512 mb of ram, 40 GB hard drive, wireless G built in, dvd/cd-rw drive and all of the other bells and whistles that comes with a new laptop for an unbeatable price. I ordered it on Sunday night and it arrives today, so that was really fast shipping. I highly recommend ebuyer.com for computer parts. They are a great merchant for your computing needs. On Saturday I went up to Oakand to see my sister and went out to dinner with her and her boyfriend Tom. It was really good italian food and then I was invited to a Hold-Em poker game that night. It was fun and although I lost $20 in 4 hands it playing from 10 til almost 2am. Definitely fun and I had my chances, so its all good. I’m sure that I will get a chance to win my money back from Trong.
We have an office pool for the NCAA basketball tournament and so far I’m in 4th place but only 3 points away from first. It might be good enough since I have more live teams than most of the other players. I really need Louiville and Utah to win their next games. That would really help my cause. I still have Illinois beating UNC for the championship. They are the two best team all year, so hopefully there are no upsets.
On a last note, this laptop rocks. Hopefully my tax return check comes soon.
