Finally I'm away from the laptop and onto...

...the Windows box I previously had rigged up to the telly for games & film watching. 

Ty mam's cousin for the monitor - I probably would have gave in sooner but 720p isn't really a usable desktop resolution - now it's running at my usual 1680x1050.

Must say I'm pleasantly surprised by how usable Windows 7 is, actually - once I installed Chrome and found a nice Twitter client it almost feels like home. Still, don't know if I'll be able to adjust to how scruffy the fonts look, or not having a menubar. :(

*has a look at how to go about installing Leopard on it*

Also OMG Gordon Brown resigned! :O

The graphics card in the laptop was dying (lines appearing over everything and random freezes) and I couldn't afford a new computer. :P
