Graduation Gift

After 3 frustrating sales cycles, we finally bought a laptop for Josiah today. We began buying the children a lap top when they graduated because we didn't want to give them our desk tops....no, that's not it....we knew they would need them. ::snort::
Best Buy evidently puts fantastic sales on - and then only send 7 to each store. Ah well - today we got a lap top. It seems to be having trouble booting up - and I'm probably sunk. They wanted me to pay $159 for them to take off the junk that was on there, boot it up the first time, and load virus software on it. I declined.
Mike has plans of converting our home computers to wireless. We have to buy another MS Office as we now have 5 computer - the two laptops still have the trial stuff on them.

Going wireless is WAY EASIER & QUICKER than retiling the tub/shower. Just FYI.

Oh NO NAME - I know you are either one of 7 or 8 folks who KNOW about my tub. ::snort::

We LOVE our wireless router! It's so cool.... I hate to even admit how many laptops we have. We are down to only 2 desktops now.. mine and the next newest one which Nathan uses. All of the kids and Tim each have their own laptop now. It makes things so much nicer because we all like to be on the computer at about the same time.. the kids all of their math, or science reading, etc., that they use their comptuers for etc. Normally we only upgrade 1 computer a year, but this year we upgraded 3 of them.
