Boo Air Canada
Well, I'm back in Waterloo.
Furfle, however, is not. The ever graceful baggage handlers at Air Canada broke his CPU mount in transit from Dawson Creek to Toronto. $800 later and I have a computer which is the third incarnation of Furfle. However, it contains no original Furfle parts.
On the plus side, this gave me an excuse to get a computer that was powerful enough to run Windows Vista. This is good for two reasons: one, I need it to prepare myself for my next work term; and two, it has snazzy speech recognition features.
In fact, as you might expect, this entry was dictated.
The ultimate test, however, will be using it to dictate my work term report. That looks to be the next 48 hours of my life -I'll let you know how it went on Monday.
