My new toy is here!
I'm writing this from my new (used) netbook that just arrived. It's soooooo cute! It's like a baby computer, a tiny little toy version of the real thing. And it's totally in like new condition (looks like it has never been used). The screen is much better than my regular laptop. I don't know if that's because my laptop is probably 2 or 3 years old and this one is newer or because this is a mat screen and just looks better than the glossy reflective ones.
I am downloading iTunes now so I can play my favorite online radio stations in the bedroom, which I have been dying to do since I moved here just over a year ago. I will also be checking out Pandora's station online for the first time. And some day I will purchase an external CD drive for it so I can play movies on it on the plane when I travel (my laptop is too big to fit on one of those airplane seat back tables).
I ordered MS office and hopefully it will arrive soon so I can work from this netbook too.

If you need to do any work while waiting for MS Office you can try Open office http://www.openoffice.org/ same features but free. I have been using the word processing program called Write all month now and I like it better than MS Word.
