My new machine since yesterday is the HP Pavilion 6880. After a day’s use and almost completely customized to my likings, I have two main thoughts on this computer.
- Im like a kid at a candy store with the new capabilities of this computer, the last computer I had was a desktop that was supposed to run at 1.7 GHz and 512 MB RAM with an OK graphics card, but after 7 years of use it had deteriorated into a lagging, feeble computer that could barely run two applications at once.
- Vista is not the devil, Hitler, rattlesnakes and death put together as it was painted to me by many people and online articles. Coming directly from an XP, it took me little to no time to get adapted to Vista, and many of the new features seem truly well thought out.
As I encounter problems (I know they’re there… somewhere…) and use it more often, I’ll post on how the computer fares. Hopefully well.
Oh, and I strongly recommend viewing CBS’s new TV show, “The Big Bang Theory.” They only have one season out so far but by what I’m hearing season 2 is on the way. One of the best shows I’ve ever seen.
Oh, and apparently the rest of the press is caching up on the “Southwest method of doing business” in the airline industry. The Condé Nast Portfolio has an interview with it’s ex CEO. Enjoy.
