Re: New XPS-R

Well My daughter's new DELL XPS-R 400 MHZ PII arrived this morning.
I have assembled it out of the boxes and I'm only short a 5 plug extension cord so I can plug in the HP scanner and the Laser Jet. I'll get that later. I am installing her school software on it now.

This is one nice machine. 256MB of SDRAM, 16 Gigabytes of HD, 56 K X2
Modem, Zip drive, 19" energy saver Monitor, Turtle beech sound, etc.

The ACS495 speaker system is interesting. It is like having a hi fi system under control of the computer.

She wants to take it to her room. But I want to get it set up and check it out for a week or two before I turn it over to her.

I am loading up her software

ADOBE Photoshop 5.0
Encyclopedia Brittanica
EPGY Math courses
AOL
SAT Prep software

I wish I had this kind of horsepower available when I was in high school.

This is the first message sent from the new machine.

Very nice...

Much nicer than any of the sub-zero machines could be.

re I loaded up with Aug 85 and 90 calls

VERY NICE TRADE, Angel!!!

I closed my short-term short-against-the-box yesterday and also bought Jun 80 calls. Of course, I wish I had bought more. <g>
