susandennisAdele is up and running and pretty spectacular!!
I had to partitian off the drive and then upgrade from XP Home to XP Professional. I hit a few snags - all created for me by me but am working them out one by one and things are good. So many things are so much easier with XP. It's amazing how much it knows. The web cams are all up and running. But I need to fiddle, I think, with their positioning. I have some ideas...
I have USB ports to spare - finally! Plus, I rearranged my electrical situation and was able to free up two outlets in the kitchen!
I still have software to reinstall and some other stuff but mainly it's all in and all running. 1GB of memory makes for a seriously efficient machine. 80GB of disk spaces is wasteful - especially when you add my 40GB external harddrive. But, man alive, this sucker is quiet. I had no idea that my other one was so noisey until I unplugged it and took it away. I'm not sure I can stand this much quiet!
Happy happy vacation day here and another one tomorrow! This rocks.

Date: 2002-11-06 04:50 pm (UTC)Adele was the first name of the postmistress of the Dighton Post Office. That is the town I grew up in. Adele knew everyones business and she could stop any of us kids dead in our tracks with her steely gaze.
I remember one time we soaped the POs windows. We thought ourselves so clever. We wrote ADELE LIKE HELL Jerky kids we were.
And that is all I have to say about Adele.
