WP 2.5 revisited. What I bought for a buck in 2008, #2.
I’m loving the new interface of 2.5. It is easy to use — the key to all internet or computer happiness — ease
of use. Am I right or not? Anyway, another tech note: I have an iMac of the squat 1/2 globe variety, a classic. Alas, the keyboard ceased its function, along with the mouse and now I have a spiffy Microsoft Wireless Laser Keyboard 6000 v2.0. Point being, it is swell, works with the vintage iMac — as long as you put the batteries in the right way. So for all you Apple lovers, this is a good keyboard choice. And there’s a $20 rebate from Office Depot, so it’s a good buy. Batteries were buy one/get one free so that’s 16 AA’s for around $7.00 but found out they came with the keyboard/mouse when we got home. AA’s are always welcome, though.
Geek news completed.
Onward and upward. My second selection for Ten Items Bought for a Buck in 2008 is this swell Amphojel bottle acquired in Greenville, NC. Ahhh, click on the link to find out about aluminum hydroxide. Oddly enough, I believe I’ll head for the Tums and leave these tablets right where they are.
My neighbor, Peggy, and I have this curious fondness for blue glass. Her collection far exceeds mine. Those two sentences are about as interesting as a blade of dry grass. Readers will excuse my inane blather, with a torn rotator cuff or two, my pain pill + muscle relaxer + NSAID consumption is a bit larger than usual today.
