It Came!

[ithildin]

The laptop came in two days early [hugs it]! I'm removing all the preloaded crap, and just installed my very old copy of Office 97. Hopefully over the next few days, I can hook it up to the internet and get it all ship shape and Bristol fashion [g]

instead of Office 97

You should try Open office... bonus, it's free. Office 97 is getting ancient...

Maybe, but it does what I need it to do :) If it ain't broke, don't fix it is pretty much my motto.

Bristol fashion? Loved the place when I was there ages ago, but I suppose that is not what you mean?

[ithildyn.livejournal.com]

Just means "from the reputation the port of Bristol had for preparing ships for sail in good order."

oic! Thanks for explaining! :-)

Thank you!

You're welcome.

Congrats!

Make a backup of the pre-loaded stuff in case you want to update without having to repurchase the software.

Have fun.

Well, yeah [g] I always back up stuff. However, in this case, other than the operating system, I'm removing all the preloaded stuff. It's all useless and takes up space.

That's great. I love getting new things and computers are on top of my list.

What's cool, that while it may be refurbished, it looks like a brand new laptop! It's much nicer than I thought it was going to be.
