Gettin' there!

I'm posting this on my sexy new iBook. Wheee!

The elation is a little diminished by not being able to install Office yet (am lacking key code that's supposed to be on the back of the DVD box, which of course I don't have, so I'm waiting to hear back from dude what sold it to me), so I can't quite have the typing orgy I'm looking forward to most, nor can I start seriously moving files Over Here.

But wow - that's some foxy fast Internet there!

that name again?

Here we go! It's no secret. MacAttic. I ordered Tuesday evening and got it today.

I still intend to have a shower! It can be after the "baby" is here!

Whee, new PC FTW! :D Until you can get Word up and running, I find WordPad makes a somewhat acceptable substitute...

I'd send you my OEM CD of WordPerfect 12, but I don't know if you could run it on your Mac.

Probably not. It's OK, I just have to wait til this guy calls me back, and he's usually pretty good. I'm having fun regardless. :)

Check out OpenOffice -- notonly is it free, that's money that doesn't go to Bill the Gates.

I recommend scrunging online with a free Mac program called "Acquisition" if he never gets back to you...

Hoorahs all around :D There have been good suggestions already for writing programs, so go for the pr0n (which can be golden).

Great to hear! You'll still be getting the desktop backup, BTW -- it'll just be a little less imperative to try to find a fast way to get it to you .... ("Mongol Express: when it absolutely, positively has to get there eventually")
