Speed

No, it's not a chemical discussion. Tho' I am now wondering why it's gone so out of fashion these days.

Anyhow, I've little say today, mostly cos I'm getting frustrated at the pace this laptop goes at. And did you see the lovely Aldi offer this week? A desktop for under €500, Intel dual core, 2.66 GHz, 3GB RAM and a 640GB hard disk. I'm tempted. I might be there next Thursday.

I know someone who picked up a laptop there a few weeks back. Similar spec and for €600. Pretty good, even if I did have to remove the trial anti-virus product as it was freezing the laptop. He was queing up before 8.30am to make sure he got one. He said there were this pair of women behind him, discussing what what they were gonna get. The usual boring shopping items he said. When they opened up at 9am, didn't the two wenches surge past him and everyone else in the queue and made a beeline for the laptops! Cunning and cheeky. Had to laugh. Still, he managed to get his laptop all the same.

End of.
