My Laptop is on its way!

I emailed ExamSoft again this week and found out that they are now compatible with Vista, so I went ahead and ordered my laptop for school. I chose a Dell Inspiron E1405 because it's relatively small without being overly expensive, because Consumer Reports said that it has better battery life than the equivalent HP laptop, and because I've heard a lot of complaints about HP's service, not to mention my own hubby's negative experience with them. I didn't really consider anything other than Dell or HP, I don't know why -- I guess those are the brands I am most familiar with.

So, anyway, I got notice today that the laptop is now on its way and should arrive on Monday. I am really excited to have my own computer again. I have been using hubby's desktop for the last six months since we haven't really had space for two computers. This will be almost the first PC I have owned (I did briefly own a PC laptop that I got used about 9 years ago. I don't know what happened to it). I am a mac person. But I am comfortable with Windows too, and Vista looks pretty cool. I can't wait to get it all set up and make it my own!
