Finally got a new laptop, the last one, a Dell Inspiron 5150 finally died a horrible death, the hamster finally kicked the bucket..........
So I ended up with a Dell XMP M1530, 4Gb RAM, a 320Gb hard disk and Windows Vista Ultimate. After hearing all the horror stories about Vista I was a like warry of what it would be like. But you gotta take a chance sometime and try something new.
It came pre-loaded with Roxio Creator, IE 7.0, Windows Media Centre and a suite of Windows applications So far I've installed:
- Google Earth
- Skype 3.8.0.115
- SecondLife
- VLC Media Player 0.8c
- Putty 2.0
- Adobe Acrobat Reader 8
- Adobe Flash Player
- Wireshark
So far so good! No crashes yet!
