evil

Received a delightful message this afternoon, so hurried to pick up brand new laptop w/ S. Apparently both the new one and the crappy old one arrived on the same day. Carrying large boxes in sardine-packed London transportation is one of the least things you would want to experience, but whatever, I'd go fetch it even if it's thousands miles away. Have been fiddling with the new machine for six hours straight, it seems that our dear DB (chap associated with HP) has heavily embrodied some facts. EVO N610c (aka evil) does not come with disk driver or burner as promised. It is no Windows XP but a Windows 2000, though I can live with that. Also have to get used to some strange British keyboard buttons--Taiwan is pro US you know. Added to that is the disappearance of my Chinese typing program, urgh! However, still very happy with this toy. Have already changed desktop appearance to larger font and download gigantic Winamp player, as you can see in the picture. Am no fan of delicate things.
