As my PC is very clearly dead, it has been decided in careful discussions and negotiations that we will be ordering me a new computer, a Dell Inspiron 350, with a 19" flat panel monitor, a 250 GB HD, a wireless keyboard and mouse set with a spare wired set in case those die, and what should be plenty of power for what I do with my computer, audio processing, WoW, and my many window habit. Not sure when it will be here, I hope within a week or two, and hopefully it'll be coming from Toronto, not Austin(the HQ for Dell) which would require a stop in Customs. I have, in the past, said many bad things about Dell, and all I can say in response to those who might find themselves questioning my apparent about face is 2 things. 1. I hope they've changed and 2. Not my call.
