No Computer General Chat

[Gemma]

My computer has died on me and my mum has my laptop so my time online will be limited until I get a new computer.

Hopefully I will get something ordered in the next few days and be back online by next week at the latest.

Have you lost all your work documents?

No, they are on an external drive.

New computer has been sitting in its packaging since Thursday, I'm just taking a little break from online activities again.

Finally booted my new computer up.

Been busy installing software I need for work and play.

Decided to have a play around with Windows 11 while I'm at it ?

Setting up a new computer is my nightmare anymore, at least for work. For home, I'll probably go bare bones on my next one since I do most of my writing in the cloud (Google Docs) now. Might even ditch MS and go with something running a low-impact Linux distro.

Everything has actually run very smoothly so far. No crashes, no incompatible software. No massives changes yet from Windows 10 but I prefer the look of Windows 11 so far.
