She's On Her Way! I'm So Excited!


Oh Girlies......This is thrilling news around my house! My computer's probably five years old or so and has been upgraded many times....still, the old girl's super slow and has a meltdown about 10 times every day....yeah, it really doesn't matter if I'm in the middle of something. She's pooped out...and I can't take it anymore. She's gotta go. :-)


I've been waiting for Windows 7 to make it's debut....and I didn't want to have to switch from Vista or another program to upgrade so I was VERY patient.

Enter......THE NEW GIRL ON THE BLOCK....

I'm going to have flames coming from my new system it's going to be so zippy...

Intel Core TWO Quad processor

EIGHT GB Memory

and

1 TB Hard drive

I can't even imagine! My WONDERFUL computer fella said this is about ten times my current computer.

I'm thrilled....and waiting.

I'll be a VERY happy blogger, and I'll be able to actually get around much easier, without the incessant crashing. Whew.....is that ever frustrating. Did I mention patience isn't my strong suit?


Hugs and kisses,
Spencer

    Congratulations! That sounds like a great computer. I've heard some good things about Windows 7. My husband got it for his computer, so we will see.

    Spencer,
    What a coincidence. We just ordered a new Dell this am. My son's is kaput and we are passing down ours so that hubby can get a machine very much like yours. Isn't is great. Almost the anticipation of a kid at Christmas.

    Great news! I'm so happy for you.

    Patience is a virtue, and good things come to those who wait. At least, that is what I've always been told. I guess I am just not a virtuous woman. Ha!

    Spencer, I love your blog, and I agree with you about Christohper and Lynette. Lynette wanted those garage doors to "blend" with the home, never painted a "stand-out" color. The front door was suppose to be the "stand-out" color. I can't argue with that. Makes sense. Spencer, I didn't see that you were a follower. Did I just miss it? You do have to be a follower of the blog to be eligible to win. Just thought I would make you aware of that in case you missed it. Thank you for coming by my blog!

    Congrats. That will be great. I just got rid of my old computer with Windows ME. I'm thrilled with the new computer - I can now watch videos or movies online and do so much more, so much faster. Now I just need some computer classes. :-)

    I'm sure you are so excited! It's the pits when the old computers begin to go out on you, you feel like putting your foot through it! Or is that just me?! I hope you'll be on the road to happy computing in no time!

    Hi Spencer, glad your so happy, but I have to ask... why didn't you get a MAC??? No crashing ever, no viruses ever, easy to navigate. No big box at your feet...oh here I go... sorry. My husband was an X-micorsoft engineer, and now all we have are MACS. I would never go back.
    But, hey as long as your happy I'm happy for you Spence.
    I still LOVE my counter tops, but your island looks sooooo beautiful to me. Oh and that cute little lamp, I love it also. And that floor!!!!
    Ok I have to get to bed. Found some grand things today thrifting.
    TTFN
    Love Claudie
