Ahh yes, my old desktop running Windows Vista (remember that?) ground slower and slower and then started behaving irrationally, so i decided it was high time for a replacement while it was still running well enough to salvage the files i wanted to keep. So i sprang for a new HP running Windows 7, being a creature much too sensitive to subject myself to the horrors of Windows 8 where i can’t even find the Start button.
Ahhhh, lovely new machine. All it was missing was the OED, and that problem was resolved by upgrading to their new 4.0 release that not only has the last eight years of updates but also will run on Windows 7.
And well, the new computer was missing my foreign language keyboards, but fór ðat i hæd to ùpgràde the öperating syßtem to “Ültimäte”, but ït was worþ paying ëxtra to gèt my acçents and strañge léttêrs. Dontcha think English could use a little decoration?
And since it’s the Christmas Season, here’s a holiday vacation time share on Duboce.
