Behold the mighty Madskillz powah of the Intertubes! Devotees of this blog (Hi Mom!) will remember I posted briefly about the problems I was having with my laptop (before going on to tell SWOP “I told you so”).
Well, to Dell’s credit, one of their representatives posted a comment on our dear blog to give me some advice and an email address should I have more problems. That’s one reason I like Dell. I have had laptop problems before with them, but their customer service has been excellent. Which goes a long way in convincing me to stay.
And now, just in time to tap out my bank account even more, tomorrow Dell is supposed to announce their new line of laptops, the sleeker eye-candy, the Inspiron 1520, 1720 and Vostro series. My fiancee, her sister, my bro and some of our friends have been talking about starting up our own Internet/YouTube video series, and if these computers have video cards powerful enough to run my editing software I might have to start saving my pennies for one.
(or Dell could send me one, out of gratitude of my devotion to them for five years… Yeah I didn’t think so either. We’ll give you credit in the credits! No? Darn…
)

Damn, as soon as I get done with my last post, my computer goes haywire again and I have to reinstall my OS again, and reload all of my software (which was a bitch!). Which I hope explains my silence as SWOP goes on to argue that you can’t really limit free speech and still say it is free. Interesting, that’s what I was saying the entire time in that Venezuela-RCTV post they had up a couple weeks earlier.
What Else?
Not to mention, I still need to address what’s going on now with the Paseo extension and grade-gate. I’ve gotta say, I never thought I’d find anything that would convince me that Mayor Chavez should take control of APS. Congratulations Superintendent Everett, you’ve convinced me.
Hand it over to Mayor Chavez. His system of governance can’t be any worse than yours.
Speaking of SWOP…
Ah, I love it when a plan comes together.

It’s nice to see that the folks at SWOP have come around to my way of looking at free speech. I don’t want to say “I told you so guys” but, ya know, I told ya so.

A ultraportable laptop (7″ screen and under 2 pounds) for around $200! It will be mine… oh yes, it will be mine…
I could use it at work when I have to go around and cover my beats for work and not worry about it breaking (compared to worrying about my current laptop). That would be great!
