You've guessed it - top of car, never to be seen again!! I've just inherited my husband's computer and it's brilliant. Quiet (the other one rattled all the time),it kept blue screening and dumping, so infuriating if you were in the middle of something. It's well worth the change and it's not been difficult at all to get used to it. I just backed everything up and then transferred it to my 'new' computer. Good luck. Love the new look Blog.

My trusty laptop is in laptop hospital, I'm typing on a cheapie bought on Ebay which has a smaller keyboard so my dingers miss ell the wuds, and I bought two new phones, hated them both and am still using my old one which has sticking letters so texting is a nightmare. But I love it, it's tiny enough to stick in a pocket and I don't want internet on my phone, anyway.
