Ugh good news and bad news....
We have reviewed your order. Although we had anticipated being able to ship your order sooner, we are experiencing an unexpected delay. We will not be able to ship your order until, on or before 10/10/2002. We apologize for this inconvenience and are doing everything we can to get your order out to you as quickly as possible.
The good news is that Cox is intruducing a new tier to their high speed cable service. For an extra $10 a month I can double my speed from 1.5mb/128kb to 3mb/256kb. But that $10 is nullified long term because I'm finally purchasing my modem from them. So that will cancel out the additional $10, leaving me at $35 a month for 3mb/256kb.

Ordered myself a new computer. Goodbye Mr. 800 mhz 256mb ram HP hunk-o-junk. Granted this computer has been great for awhile, but it's time to move on. Dell took the majority of the payment for my machine today and should take the second part tomorow. Supposedly it will be manufactured and sent out on Thursday, meaning I should get get it early next week. I'm skeptical of this, but Aaron DID get his laptop from Dell yesterday, less then a week from when he ordered it. Although his was a standard configured laptop, and I custom configured mine. Below are the main items coming in my machine:
PentiumŪ 4 Processor at 2.40GHz
with 533MHz system bus/ 512K L2 Cache
1GB DDR SDRAM
80GB Ultra ATA/100 Hard Drive
nVidia Geforce 4
16x Max DVD-ROM Drive
40x/10x/40x Max CD-RW Drive
19 in (18.0 in viewable, .24dp) M992 Flat CRT Monitor
This system should suffice for a while...hopefully.

The samples of the new De/Vision albulm are promising.
The Lions and Cardinals won today as the Patriots and Rams lost.
UNLV luckily didn't play yesterday, OSU was obliterated, and Michigan stomped the "fighting" Illini.
Assembly language isn't that bad, but the same can't be said for UNLV and the instructor.

Ugh since the new site is coming along slowly (as in not at all) I decided to go into Blogger and quickly redo the template. Don't know if the archive works or not...but oh well.
I guess you can also check out the few posts from the last week that finally are published. I've seen a few movies that I never commented about, including One Hour Photo, Frailty, Trapped, and a few others. But I dont feel like posting now anyways.
