Good Morning/Good Day
`Member's

ToDay is my last day of working double shifts.
Tomorrow 12 hours, and starting Monday,
I become closer to being human, & only work 8 hrs on the night shift.
Hopefully, I will not be as spaced `out lol

Then I will searching for another Monte, & a home.
I will no longer be MonteLess, or HomeLess.

What are you doing this weekend ?

Thats not a bad laptop Space. I'm thinking of getting me one next tax season and something like that might fit the bill. The only thing that i dont like is that its Vista. But it does have 3G of ram so it might be ok.

What i might end up doing is building me one and using either XP or see what the reviews are going to be on Windows 7. I have ALOT of programs that run on XP. I know that some of them get really buggy when run on Vista.

But its still a good laptop with an even better price. If my PC would die, i'd find a way to make it work with everyting i have.

This is the first time I've ever used a lap top & it takes some getting use 2 ..The mouse controls R a `Trip 4 Sure, but I am super fast/slow learner lol

Now, I can see U=Tube etc...WoW & I checked `out Bump'in Vid...WoW...his Monte sounds super badd 4 -Sure : )

Oh, my g/f also gave me links 2 all the homes to look at & I wanted to give her all my links to Monte's : ) lol
