our work is never over

Hello from Rebecca, everybody! That being the shiny new computer (Becks for short, of course).
I was going to go 14" Toshiba, but then the 15" was on sale in a similar price bracket and I could actually leave the store with it rather than have to order. So I did.
Still getting settled into the new digs; first order of business was antivirus, second was recovery DVDs. (I have a DVD burner now! DVD burners are cool!) Still need to make .doc copies of my WIPs and get them on the hard drive, but otherwise I'm in pretty good shape.
Enjoy your pending retirement, Hex. It's been a lovely eight years, but you've earned the break from primary-computerhood.

Yay Rebecca! That's an awesome name!

OMG, eight years. That's a long time.

Well, computers do have a tendency of living up to their names. (Hex needed the hard drive replaced - so, please reinstall universe and reboot - and also attracted ants in my dorm room. Well, they were coming in near where I kept Hex plugged in, so I blame the computer. XD) Given that, I figure Claudia would leave it open to SHENANIGANS and Helena brings with it the risk of computer psychosis, so I might as well go for a name with some staying power.
Hex has been a little trooper, other than the bit with the hard drive, but... I've reached a point where I can't do what needs doing anymore, and we can't have that. Still works just fine, but it's past time I used it as a backup computer.
