Feb. 4th, 2007 03:04 pmSo... we have a new computer in the house as the old one was on its last legs.
It's another laptop. Dad just fell in love with the thing in the shop and went for it. Not very high specs, compared to a lot that were on the shelf, but it was cheap and cheerful - says a lot, really. XD
And it has Vista.
So far, the installation is proving surprisingly painless, I've just chucked Norton on there and it's doing a system scan. Looks like the Internet is working okay, at least we could download the updates for Norton, though the guy in the shop was a little worried about it playing nice as it's so new. Going to stick Works on there in a minute and get it grooving with Mum's and Dad's accounts. (Edit: And it's all up and running now.)
I've nicknamed it Cortana. ;)
