I am glad it got here today.

Do you remember that at the first of the summer my desktop forgot where it put it's hard drive?
I saved up this summer, bought another new refurbished computer as it was cheaper than fixing it. I will fix it later for Bob, though, I think. Or we may just decide to have the data recovered from the hard drive.
Anyway I spent my Amazon money and ordered on Saturday. Delivery date was today or tomorrow. I have to work tomorrow afternoon, so I am glad it got here today.
It seems harder to set up this time. I am getting there, though.
Trying it out to make sure I can get here. It sure is nicer than my old little laptop that cannot install any updates, etc.
The monitor is larger and I have it at a better angle. I still have not installed the printer. It tried to install a RICOH printer when I was setting up. I do not have one of that brand.
There are some other things I need to do this afternoon, but I really wanted to make sure I got here and filled you guys in.

Now I will feel able to look for more online earnings besides surveys.

@GardenGerty I wish I had your gifts to look beyond surveys.

I'm glad it arrived and you're able to use it now. I'd miss hearing about your day if you weren't able to reach out to us.

It is much more suited for me vision and ergonomically wise. I have been here so long my roots go very deep.

@DaddyEvil We are always glad for new blood, though.

@GardenGerty I'm glad it's easier for you to use. I know you've been here much longer than I have.

Maybe the person who previously had this had a RICOH printer. Nice to have one that will work for you. Large monitors are nice. Mine is also a touch screen which I like.

@celticeagle Nothing quite that nice when you get a refurbished computer, but that is okay anyway. I think it sounds great.

I hope so. It is much better for me visually to have the bigger screen.

I may also get the other one repaired. Actually with the price I paid it is like a disposable. However I do not want that--environmentally or in the use of my time setting things up.

Once I get all my stuff installed and synced I will love it.

And I will train it on which sites to remember passwords, etc.

It allows me to do so much more. The laptop had trouble with anything new being added.

I am working on it. I just rearranged how it all was sitting on the desk after I answered some discussions.
