New computer at work.

So I got a new job a few weeks back and since we spend majority of our department's money on first class travel and lodging, we didn't have enough new computers. So they gave me a Dell GX-260 or something. Anyways, it was slow. 2.44 ghz, which is decent, but just 256 mb memory. Anyways, today I received a new one 😀

Dell GX-280: 3.4 ghz, 1 gb ram, 160 gb HD, DVD Burner :Q but still the old Viewsonic 19" CRT 🙁 Sucks but since my job has nothing to do with computers, I guess I can live with it 😛

i hate that. 2.4 GHz is fine but our company is so scared to get ram for some dumbarse reason. 2.4ghz with windows xp trying to run on 256mb owns the machine. drives me nuts.
