After many months of waffling, I finally pulled the trigger on a new computer. The surprise is that I’ve gone with a laptop as my primary machine instead of a desktop. I thought about it a bit and realized that I use my laptop most of the time at home, sitting on the couch and browsing the Internet. I’ve also been looking enviously at Catherine’s new Lenovo T61 laptop that replaced her broken T40. I’ve been watching prices, and recently I found I could get a solid business-class Lenovo T400 laptop for a very reasonable price. So I pulled the trigger and ordered one last week.
Now I am very impatiently checking my order status, hoping it will ship soon. I am very excited to be moving into the brave new world of dual-cores, LED-backlit screens, and Windows Vista. I’m also planning to install Fedora Linux on it, though I might wait until version 10 is released in November.
