Movie Polls, New Computer, No Netflix This Week & Why, Amazing Race, AMSM, Next Iron Chef

phantasmrose has a general movie poll here and a poll on women in movies hereNew computer is going to cost me over $2100. I’m in a bit of shock over that. I was hoping for $1,200 - $1,500, which is what I usually pay for computers. But it’s going to have some sort of super special new memory (DDR-3??) and a 19-inch flat panel monitor. So. I dunno. Oh, ( Read more... )

2100 seems quite...expensive, even with the DDR-3 memory and a flat panel. I don't know why manufacturer's insist on no floppy drive, I use mine constantly.

Did not get to theater, will have to squee over MC next weekend. :(

Yeah, I thought it was pretty expensive, too. Can I email you the quote so you can help me figure out why it's so high? I guess I can get an external floppy drive at some point. I don't think I have anything critical on floppies. I find them easier to use, though, than a CD. Not sure why.

Too bad about not getting to the theater. I'm actually very seriously considering going again on Saturday. Wish we could go together for realz, but we'll just have to try the pretending to go together thing again. Definitely go this weekend. I'm concerned that with the bad reviews and low turnout it may not be in the theater much longer. And it's truly wonderful.

yes of course, mail me the quote and I'll be glad to vet it for you.

The kids are moving into their new apartment this weekend, so perhaps I should just go after work one night this week. That sounds like a great plan!

Thank you! You're wonderful! I have two email addies for you. Is sbcglobal the right one to use?

Yes, that sounds like a good idea to make sure you get to see it in the theater while it's still there. It's absolutely worth taking the time out to see, I promise.

sbcglobal is fine, if the other is ATT, it still works but I don't check it frequently.

Groovy! It'll be an email from my work address -- cdklawfirm.com, with an excel spreadsheet attached. I really appreciate this!

OK I had a chance to look at the specs, and nothing really seems out of line on an individual basis, cost-wise. The Intel mobo and memory are of course the big ticket items, and that's a really nice processor, should be incredibly fast coupled with the massive amounts of memory ( ... )

Thank you so much for looking it over ( ... )
