*sigh* I really want a new computer! Mine is definitely getting long in the tooth, though it's still newer than a lot of the systems on campus.
The bummer is that I'd get a pretty decent discount if I ordered one while I'm an employee here - education discount, ya know. If I could be sure of an income, I'd go on and do it right before I left and just do a payment plan, and pay it off as soon as I could...but I think taking on still more debt is a baaaad idea right now.
However, if the house sold for more than I expect in my wildest dreams (unlikely), I suppose it might be an option.
Heh, move out here and I'll build you a system one part at a time. Until I got that money yesterday I thought I'd by collecting bits until May...
Or do you want a laptop? That's trickier. I'm about to break down and put in a wireless network, by the way...
