the new computer

finally opened the box and pulled out the new computer. you'd think we'd be like totally freaking excited to open it, but because the old computer still works and the new computer is basically the same thing, well it's simply not that exciting. now, of course, the new computer is totally newer - durr - but otherwise it's the same. if you see what i am saying there.

might use the old one as an itunes jukebox or as a hulu/vudu/whatever video server for the teevee. of course, the teevee is so old it doesn't have any of the appropriate hook ups for a computer. might clean off the old one and format the c:\ and see about trading it in on a netbook. thoughts?

we didn't really need a new computer so i guess it's sort of strange we got one, but we got a combo deal and it just seems like the old computer will not last forever, so we got a backup before the old one went out altogether. it is cool that there are enough computers to go around - everyone in the house can have one.
