Oh crap. Time to back up and swap the disk QUICK!

Wow, wow, wow.
Somehow, having two monitors, just looks damn cool. That’s my brother’s new setup btw and it does make checking email, writing up documents or spreadsheets WHILE monitoring multiple stock markets a breeze. The cost? PC Parts upgrade, RM1790, dual 17″ 1704FP LCD monitors from Dell, RM1998.

Feels quite like that today… got dragged into some boring con call, with low-blood sugar levels (no breakfast) and dangerously low blood-caffeine percentage (no morning tea or coffee)… Did a bit of CNY shopping last weekend but mostly, not much accomplished yet considering 2006 started with a sneeze and a sniffle (well, quite a bit actually). The sunflowers are doing well, pix coming so a CNY bloom is very likely…

I must give Dell one credit – they are helluva fast! Ordered on Tuesday, and twenty-four glorious inches is sitting on my desk today (Friday!) Gives TGIF a new meaning doesn’t it. Oh, how I wish the most special person in the world is here tonight…

Finally bit the bullet and ordered an LCD flat panel display. Thanks to Dell who was giving out RM944 worth of rebates! I did not go for some low-end LCD monitor however, I went all the way, twenty-four inches of wide-screen glory. Of course, it means more screen real-estate so your Photoshop palettes and windows don’t get cramped out. Less heat and less desk space plus lower power consumption are other benefits. Then again, it’s more wallpaper space so that I can see more of the most exquisite person on this planet !! I can’t wait! Oh wait, I need to clear my desk!

Woohoo!
