I called the computer store today, and they're like, yes, we have your mac.
"How long have you had it?"
"Oh, I don't know, I'd have to check the paperwork."
"Were you planning to call me?"
"We had some trouble finding you."
Hmm. Okay, even if all of the phone numbers I gave them didn't work, then, how about just looking up my name in the brown directory? I gave them my legal name, which, indeed, is what's in the brown directory.
Anyways -- so now I've got a brand new, clean-as-a-whisper powerbook G4. What shall I put on it? Firefox, of course -- that's my first download. What should I use for blogging? I think I'll go back to Mail for mail. I liked Mail.
Also, it seems that I remember linear algebra well enough to debug a vector/3d math library. Who knew?
