so most of you readers out there know that i live in an old 1850's house that has never caught up in todays current technology trends. i blogged about all the tech stuff we don't have...well, we broke down to by a tracphone so i now have cell phone access. that was huge step for us!!
then one day i turned the computer on only to find it had all crashed, except internet! i know that sounds odd and i was alittle shocked myself. i mean of all things i would have expected the old computer to blowup whenever i would dial in to the internet host. but it kept kicking as long as i only wanted to use the internet. well, that really isn't practical.
so yesterday, our computer guy came over and set up a new computer and printer for us! i giggled like a school girl at so many features. hubby and computer guy both would just look at me. then i realized they were really kinda chuckling at me. you see... the flat screen is something my hubby has had for about 4 years now. it replaced the computer we just replaced. then our printer is also a scanner. i had heard about those but had never seen one! it's amazing. it means i get to clear off the dresser that sits in the opposite end of our house and plays host to this giant copier he brought home from the office 4 years ago. i don't have this mess of speakers b/c they are built in. not only that, but i can even save to a floppy disk and a cd or dvd. then this mouse has a button that rolls. i guess that is quite common these days too!! it is so amazing. i can't believe how much better i see things now!
so as we were hauling away the old one i suggested we keep the stuff for our printer so we could sell it. they both just kind of looked at me with the look of "are you serious?" hmm...surely someone out there would like a bubblejet from the mid 90s that feeds only one paper at a time. i mean it is quite a miraculous machine!!
anyways - i'm pumped and feel like a whole new woman!! i really am getting with it!!!
