Hello, hello! I’m writing this entry from the relative comfort of my couch via my precious new PDA. :) I was planning to have to write an eentirely new program for such updates, but it turns out that Opera (the built-in browser) renders MovableType in a perfectly acceptable manner, so I really don’t see the need to waste my time.

I had an incredible day yesterday. Lorenzo and I started benchmarking our new cards just as soon as he got back from class. So far, according to 3DMark 2003, the Radeon is clearly the superior performer. NVidia still wins in the “pretty component” category.

After a couple hours of benchmarking, Lorenzo and I put our powerf new cards to good use: we now both have dual 19″ monitors. I have an effecive desktop soze of 2048×1024. *beams*

I also got the keypad to work in Doom on my PDA. I played Doom, complete with sound, the entire bus ride home. When I got back to the apartment, the office was already closed, so I didnt’t get my wifi card until an hour ago. But installation was easier than I could have imagined, and I’m already loving it. I used VNC to control my PC from the couch; how cool is that?

Okies, time to go before I drain the battery. Sorry for the likely misspellings: I have no spellcheck on here yet. :)
