New Toys

posted by Rolando

In one of my last lost post I was tagged by Mariuca on some dream machines I wanted. She wanted a cool new phone and Sony Vaio laptop. I wanted a Dell XPS or a Apple Macbook Air. Well I didn’t get either.

What I did end up getting with the Sony Vaio Studio Laptop VGN-AR730E/B 17. It’s a great compromise between price and features from my original choices.

The other cool thing I got, which was not my list was a 802.11n access point by Trendware. What it does is connect to my existing 802.11g wireless router and make it a 802.11n. I had to keep my old router because I still have computers at home using the older wireless protocols.

Now everything is blazing fast! My desktop computer gets about 32,000 kb/s and my new Sony laptop about 21 kb/s. Of course it helps when I added an extra GB of RAM to my laptop to make it a total of 4GB.

So yes, I am very happy with all my computers and network connections at home. If I could only get a backup from my old web host from all the post from My Hush Space, I’d be very very happy.

    I am glad to see you back Rolando.

    I didn’t know if you were just taking a break or if something else had happened.

    I missed you. :)

    Hey ZZ, I was taking a break because work has been insanely busy. In fact I’m at work right now. Yesterday was a 20 hour day. Today it’s 8 probably going on 11. We’ll see.

    But there are lulls in-between tasks so I get to multitask and blog and make my rounds. I’m glad to see that you’ve been busy.

    Missed you too.

  5. Rolando Said,

    Hi Waliz, yes my last laptop was just too small. It was starting to bug me. It’s still good and good for travel, just not for the everyday work.

  6. Rolando Said,

    Hey Meleah, you do huh? Me too, especially anything electronic. It’s just hard financially to keep on upgrading, lol

    Hi Mariuca, I wish I could say I need it, but I didn’t. But it sure is a fun toy. Hopefully, I will have this one for a long time.
