[vox] New laptop. Woo hoo!
We'll see how happy I am after I get Debian installed (currently running
mke2fs -c to test the new hard drive). Ordered from DFS direct for
a little under $700, I've got a warranty until the end of the year, and
they majorly screwed up on a few things:
1. They gave me a 38G hard drive. I ordered a 6G. Guess I'll just have
to put my MP3 collection on it.
2. It has an extra PCMCIA card I didn't request...a global-use modem
that I believe is Linux compatible. Pretty good, because I purchased
this laptop for eventual overseas use.
3. Wrong power cord.
Since I work at an office that uses Dell laptops, I've got a spare power
cord (I'll call and have them send me mine, though).
Assuming this thing functions properly, I am quite happy.
