No Rest for the Wicked

Posted by Karen - January 10th, 2007

It’s been a hectic few days and I barely have time to post this as I have a few demanding projects on the go. Not that I am complaining. I’d rather be busy and earning some income but at the same time, I would really like to work on a few fun projects like more templates and themes. I promise, they are coming!

On Friday I’m finally going to shop for some much needed new computer hardware. I really need an upgrade so I will be buying a new case, motherboard, CPU and fan, lots of memory, and a better video card. I can’t wait! It will be fun to piece it all together.

Well, I’m off to get some much needed sleep. Until next time…

    I wish I could upgrade my computer too. I have such a poor 1.1 GHz…
    But I mainly use Notepad++ for editing webpages. And you don’t need 3 GHz for that ;)

    Hi Frits,

    Maybe you don’t need one yet, eh?
    Well, my computer is getting tired…and for the multi-tasking I do, I need more speed and lots of memory.

    Looking forward to what your new system specs end up being.

    Be sure to let is know what you upgrade.

    Do I smell an OS upgrade coming your way? :)
