digitalemurMy new hard drive arrived today.
I considered taking and posting a screenshot of the drive info for the new drive (80 GB large, mostly empty) next to the info for Hostile 17(3GB small, 2.5GB full.)
But then I realized that'd involved showing you my desktop, and I cannot put THAT specimen of nerdiness out on the internet. Though if anybody wants to see the desktop picture and tell me whose address it's dialing, be my guest.
Anyhow, I'm running Retrospect right now, and it's dutifully chugging through my MP3s. It's amazing how much crizzap I have on this poor little old computer. It's amazing how long the backup is taking. Holy Outdated Technology, Batman!
On the other hand, leaving it mostly alone to do this encouraged me to knit some, fold laundry some, clean up the pile of presents and boxes and Easter candy on the living room floor some, and start packing for Boston some. Yay.
So now the question is, what shall I name this new external hard drive with all this space? Suggest! Fangirly, literary, and artsy-fartsy creative name suggestions are ALL welcome. This HD will be around for a while, so it shouldn't just be a name that's backwards compatible with Hostile 17, my laptop.
