For years my saying has been, "There's no such thing as a painless upgrade".

I like to compare 'puter ownership to BOAT ownership.....

The best two days you'll ever have with it are the day you BUY it and the day you SELL it. :-D

Too bad computers don't keep their value as well as boats do!

Hey, Ogg, tell the boy happy birthday for us!

We just got a new Dell laptop, with a wireles card,
highspeed internet through the cable company,
and a wireless router, so our son can play x-box 360 at the same time we are online!

Now it takes only 3 minutes from powering the laptop
on to being online, whereas my son's laptop
with dial up was at least 10 minutes.

*cus the Jefferson's theme - 'well we're movin' on up!

We got DSL recently and what a change! It takes much less time for us than it did when we were on dial-up, and we ged so much more (goofing off) done in the time we spend online now.
