doc_destructoJust a quick update before bed:
The Wif got her new laptop today (UPS is like molasses here, I swear) and we had many a trial and tribulation with trying to get it to work on the home network. Ultimately, I updated the router's firmware (v1 -> v4) and let it broadcast the SSID. Now all things are groovy with Ne's laptop. Thank god because...
Laptop refresh for SB didn't go as smoothly as planned, partly due to the somewhat bent wireless card crapping out on me after the Win2K install. Managed to get some software on it, but unfortunately none of the windows updates.
Desktop refresh for mom didn't go as smoothly as planned, largely because Micro$oft's update servers suddenly forgot what time it was. Whee. Did manage to get SP4 and the software on it, though. Should be ready for her when I pick up Little Dude tomorrow.
Speaking of the Little Dude, this will be the first time I've seen him (other than that half hour on Monday) in over a week. A week! Good lord! I feel like I've been managing without a small hyperactive appendage all week. Hopefully there will be much cuteness and many stories from Grandma Cindy's for me tomorrow morning. ^_^
