Playing with more new toys
Ok, now I'm typing this from the wife's laptop. I still haven't set up my e-mail :(, so I can't give you all the specs on the new things. I know my desktop is a DELL XPS 400 (I think), and the wife's laptop is an Inpiron 1501 (at least that's what it says on the cover.)
The fact that I can sit here on the couch while my son plays arcade games on my desktop is pretty cool. My other son is trying to jump on my lap though, where the computer is, so that's less fun. I had hoped the muppets on the TV screen would distract him, but that didn't pan out. Oh well. Let me set the laptop aside for a moment.
Ok, appearantly Duck Dodgers is more interesting than the muppets. That's disappointing. Oh well.
Now to test something else. I've go my printer hooked to the desktop, and my camera's memory card is plugged into the printer. Let's see if I can pull file from it.
Well, that worked not at all. I don't have sharing on between them yet I guess. Home networking on a new operating system that doesn't have any updated drivers is FUN! I know what I'll be doing this weekend. :)
Well, now to click publish and see if this little gem goes on the blog. Then, Justice League comes on the Boomerang network (long live the Boomerang network!). :)
