Saturday morning and the aftermath of the Dell Boxes: The Cottage of Blog
The Cottage of Blog
It's kind of like Christmas without the clean-up. Dell boxes everywhere. Not tossed, just in case.
Bad news. They didn't send me the lock cable. Good news (or other bad news depending on how you look at it.) They sent me a computer back pack. If anyone can tell me how that can be advantages vs a regular case with shoulder strap, please, please do.
I can't. Paranoid me. Someone could easily push up behind you and steal stuff out of the back pack. It's cumbersome, might hurt your back. Fortunately, it's light.
Speaking of light. It's not quite as light as I'd hoped. Beautiful though.
I'm trying to figure out a way to brighten up the screen a bit. Found the resolution was already way up to high. The desktop is much more readable. But, I've never had a desk top that didn't have font that wasn't higher than about 8 (even though it claims to be on 10)
I'm not knocking my Dell. You know, for such a little machine (in the course of all things relative) it has a pretty big sound system. Very nice. Just wish the screen was a bit more brilliant. But--I did notice the plug had come out and others have said when working on batteries, the screen is duller than when plugged in. Will try again this morning.
It's grade time again. Papers will be graded this morning, if I have to glue myself to my chair. Then all grades must be entered into my new GradeKeeper. (did I mention that last night?) probably did. Won't go into it again.
Hopefully this afternoon, writing, writing, writing. And analyzing a book by Mallory Kane. Bodyguard Husband. If anyone hasn't read it, do so. It's a good old fashion someone stalking heroine, heroine force to marry (legitimatel) an FBI agent hired to protect her. Yes, her daddy's the local chief of police. Set up is bloody brilliant. You know exactly what the books about in the prologue--a letter from the killer (stalker) to his fantasy "heroine." No way could I put the book down after that.
Cheers
