In my boredom here at the PC, and out of slight jealousy of my partner's new laptop, I'm pricing out computers online to replace my home PC which has a motherboard that's slowly dying. I need other entertainment before I spend too much money.

Got to love it when a passenger goes crazy due to flight delays. Guy in the ATL PC just got heated over the delays on this flight, saying that the weather is "fine" (well, it's fine here, but that's not the problem) and that CO is "just wanting to delay, delay, delay, and then cancel his flight" just to "p!ss him off." Uh huh. Yeah. Somebody at CO HQ on Smith Street really hates this particular guy and is willing to delay over a hundred other people just to make him mad. You know what, dude, sh!t happens. Travel often enough and you'll have eventually have a day where the weather is cr@p and you're not going anywhere anytime soon. Mature people just deal with it. They don't go off on an innocent agent claiming her employer is doing this just to make you mad.

Meant to ask - what are you looking at? |
Wow - 4 1/2" of rain at HOU (IAH close to 3")

I'll gladly volunteer him for anything that gets him out of the PC. At least now he's shut up.

I wonder how much grief he's going to give the FA's?

Probably way too much. Tell them how important he is to CO and how could they do this to him? :rolleyes:

Looking at some Dell desktops right now. My work computer is a laptop, but what I really need is something at home that stays home to use to host all our media files, as well as run things like home financial software and photo editing software that I don't keep on my work computer. We've also discussed replacing that computer with something that will also double as a media server, and then connecting it all up to our home entertainment system.

Why a laptop for those needs? Buy a cheap desktop with 4GB RAM and a big HD and call it a day.
I have a laptop for work which is what I travel with. |

According to the weather radar, Brenham and Navasota are now out of the rain, and it's moving east fast enough that IAH should be clearing up within an hour or so. Hopefully I'll make it out of here at 6:30 PM after all.
