I am not sure how the internet connection will work without the desktop computer here. (The desktop is my parents computer) later today, they are taking it to Staples to get the memory transferred to a new computer, which will be ready by Wednesday the 17th.

So, other than with this computer here, I have never used the DSL internet. I know that the computer has the password in memory, and the path of the cables goes from the modem to the wireless router and then to the computer. We have never had issues using the internet on the laptop or xbox through the wireless router with this computer turned off. So, I am assuming that there will be no problems. I will just put the laptop on the computer desk for a few days so my mom can use it too for a few days and hope the internet still cooperates. (I am not an expert in computers like my brother)

So, if you don't see me or Jon  StarRazor online here or on the xbox for a few days, that's why.

Next, since I have adapted to it at work, I get to teach the whole family how to get used to Windows 7 instead of XP. After using it at my new job, I do like Windows 7 so I hope everyone here gets used to it with no problem.

After they get their new computer, I really need to get some $$ together to get a ne one of my own. I have use of 2 laptops right now, neither is very new and both have battery issues. One needs plugged in to work - if it is unplugged from the cable for even a minute it goes into the low-battery sleep mode thing. The other has a battery that lasts about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. I just wish I had more $$ to purchase a new computer. I don't even care if its a laptop or desktop, I just really need a new one of my own.

Edit - The desktop computer is gone and the laptop still works find online. Still, I cant wait to have a newer, faster computer to play with.
