MY COMPUTER IS BACK!!!111!1



I feel like I've regained a limb or something. Yay.

Um, they apparently replaced the LCD and baseplate, and a few other odds and ends. THey did NOT do anything to the messed up USB port, maybe they didn't notice it. I haven't plugged anything into it to see if it overloads and shuts down my computer, though, so I don't know if they fixed it some other way.

The screen is a bit wonky and all stretched out looking, but I think I can fix it by messing with the settings. I'm too lazy to do it at the moment, though.

While my computer was gone I fed my addiction by using the machines at the library (and 120 minutes doesn't seem like such a long time there) and reading Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon, which is so entertaining that I was only mildly relieved about 312 pages into it the plot arrived, or a little less then a quarter of the way into it. Dad would probably love it.
