Halle-frickin'-lujah*

I am writing this post from my brand new Alienware Aurora desktop with more harddrive space, more memory, and a faster processor, than my old XPS, not to mention a Blu Ray player and Windows 7. A desktop that, with the replacement of yet another motherboard, finally works.

It's been almost 2 months of headache and crap service, but at least I got a better computer out of the deal.

Really? I mean, really this time? Really?

Well, so far. I doubt I'll truly relax until it's worked steadily for at least a month, but since this final motherboard replacement it's been working just fine.

freakin FINALLY!

Does this mean you'll have more time to do some writing? :D

[identity profile] gwynraven.livejournal.com 2010-10-10 04:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah. That was subtle *g*

Yes, it does mean I'll have more time to do some writing. Any specific requests?

What is this "subtle" of which you speak? :D

And I wouldn't mind some more Liath!

I'll get right on it :)

Ask and you shall receive. New Liath posted just for you: http://gwynraven.livejournal.com/1267783.html

Oh, jeez . . . you didn't say you had an XPS 700 series! Now I'm not surprised at all at what went down.

[identity profile] gwynraven.livejournal.com 2010-11-21 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)
It was a 600 series, actually.

A distinction without a difference; presuming it's the issue I'm familiar with, it first showed up in the 625s and ended up affecting systems as late as the 730s. The 600 had its own set of problems, unrelated to the stuff that went on in its descendants.
