The HIVE knows when you are sleeping.

Well thats good to know, but what about a year from now? Sims 3 may require a bit more of kick in the way of requirements.

In computers it never hurts to wait some time to get a new one - until it hurts to not have a new computer. If you get what I mean - if you wait, you'll get a better one for the same price.

Notebooks are bad because they are hard to upgrade, and they often come with suboptimal hardware - weak graphic cards, slow hard drive, stuff like that.
It's usually easier to upgrade desktop PCs - you can do it all by yourself, usually. But it appears as if new standards for sockets, RAM and so on are established every few years, so often you still end up buying a new computer instead of upgrading - unless you upgrade early.

Well I'm headed off to bed. I'l try to check back in at least once a month, or if I'm up to it, twice a month.

One out, one in.

Morning Hive!

I've got my parents coming up to see my tonight for dinner - should be nice to have a chat with them.

BTW, has anyone else noticed that the Facebook D&D Tiny Adventures app has had an update? Male and female versions of each character class, and some "rewards" the more you play it. Interesting stuff.

Hey T. I think I'll go see my parents in the weekend. Mom promised to make pizza. She makes darn good pizza.

Heya hive. Long time no see.

Hi!

My girlfriend dumped me on Saturday, so its back to being Mr. Lonely Hearts.

That's bad. I'd say it's her loss.

Morning Mustrum - I left a comment on your blog entry from yesterday and I hope you and your family are doing OK.

Thanks. It's as good as it can be, I think. My parents will go visiting my uncles wife today ("replacing" his sister and her husband), and providing support (organization and emotional). The date for the burial is set, and we now have to organize how to get the family over there. (Hotels? Renting a bus?) I am out of the loop for most of this, though, and doing my usual business.

I'm enjoying having Netflix. I'm getting to see some movies I wouldn't think of buying or going out to rent.
