Well, after last night's exceptionally upbeat entries...
Yeah...
Today, things are moving along much better. The R40 got moved to the back room to stay while I consider other options. (There is always an install of Puppy Linux...)
The battery for the T61 still hasn't arrived, but I did get in the new 32 GB SD card that I'm going to use as extra archive storage on the X60s. (It works perfectly, by the way. Have it in right now, and did some quick compatibility testing. Nice to have the extra storage.)
Also got a new 16 GB USB thumb drive. The story behind that is that it was ordered as a replacement for one that was lost during the great "furniture malfunction" incident. The funny thing is, of course, that I found the lost thumb drive in a totally different location. Figures. But I now have tons of free USB-based storage as well.
I think I've reached my saturation of computer stuff for now. I'll be happy when the new battery gets here. (I've been using the T61 off it's old battery, which gives me somewhere over 2 hours. It's a beautiful system, and I really want it up to full potential.)
As a side note, I got a package from Canonical. I'd grabbed some stickers from them, including some "domed" stickers for use on the T61 to cover up the nasty scratches on the top of the lid.
It looks like we're due to get some ugly weather for the next few days, so I may be enjoying my systems a bit more than usual. We'll see how things go. Hopefully, it won't get too bad...
