miko2I have a broadband connection.
My landlord wasn't home and I had not yet asked for written permission to drill a hole into my computer room, so they couldn't do that... so they used the old cable lines, which means that my modem is in the livingroom near the front door. Hmm. Well I guess I can string a cable to my router from there.
The install guy said that my router should have a firewall and that I can just plug things in and go. But I'd really prefer to drag Mike over here and abuse my friendship with him again by deferring to his expertise on everything. Only I haven't stocked up on Mountain Dew lately. I also haven't bought Christmas presents. For anyone. Except Mike, actually. And Tom.
Anyway, my house is a mess and I'm tired from staying up too late. Bleah. But I remembered what I really want most -- Win XP Pro. Or Win 2k. I hate having to run Win 98 on all my machines.
In other news, I played EQ again. And again.
