Downloading pictures off the camera as I type... the new laptop is here, hurray! Haven't turned it on yet, but have the battery installed and all the packing protection off. ^_^ Just waiting for Picasa to get my pictures so I can post a couple with this entry.

It looks like Peanut approves of her new cave... LOL!

Yep, she wouldn't get in the outer box once it was empty, but she loves her new catcave. ;)

Have you already posted the specs for that nifty looking device?

Look at that last picture it is so precious!

She really liked that box, it was the perfect size for her! She is asleep in the chair now, in the sun, but I bet she gets back in it later. :)

Very, very cool!!! Wow that was a fast delivery Kelly's alienware computer took about a month and it was on rushed service. Busy people over there. The computer is great. I hope you like the laptop, I would like to have one myself eventually in the case of an emergency!

Oh and the blue color is bitchin'!

I think it took about three or three and a half weeks from ordering it to when it arrived at my door. We didn't notice any 'rush' options when we ordered, and the only shipping was fed-ex ground, which took most of a week.

I'm really loving it, and my only complaint is that the fans are always running full speed, which makes it a little bit loud. I can't wait to be able to go down to So. Cal. and have it along, so I can still play my games! I love the color! Sam's iBook is nice and sleek and pretty in white, but blue is my favorite color and it was that or silver. It almost matches our car, lol!
