Well, it is done. My new computer arrived and in less than 3 hours I’ve got all my files transferred over and all my programs installed. Not bad for an afternoon’s work!
All in all I’m very impressed with this new PC. It’s fast – though you would expect that – and very responsive. It’s also nice to have the added features of Windows XP Media Center, though I’ll better appreciate those features once I’ve got a 19″ flat-screen display (which is in the works).
For now, I’ve got some work to do – although all my data & whatnot transferred over, all my programs are disorganized and scattered across a huge start menu – and that simply will not do. Time to be anal retentive and organize it all!
Ciao for now!
Edit: I should probably mention that it turns out that I did in fact get a Pentium 4 (with Hyper-threading) as opposed to the cooler and more technically advanced Pentium D for which I had been hoping. Ah well, it still runs Quake III at 90 FPS at 1280×1024. Whee!
