I find the best thing about new computers is endless hours of pleasure to be had moving over files and contacts as well as reinstalling Blackberry’s and Itunes and setting up the new Outlook mail settings. Itunes has been my personal favourite this time, pipping the Blackberry in to second place. Be warned that if you have downloaded discs on to Itunes without saving them on a hard drive, you will never see them again as Itunes will only recognise what you have actually purchased on line from their store. You can also say goodbye to any of your playlists that you have painstakingly put together over the years. Put in layman’s terms, transferring Itunes music is a fucker of a job that made me wish I still had some hair to pull out. I am sure there is some better way of doing this, but every time I looked on Internet forums about moving Itunes I felt a twitching of my right hand that is synonymous with something getting broken.

 A bit like when I get a new car, I have vowed not to mess this laptop up so I have banned eating, drinking near it and I have told my children that it is mine and that they will have to satisfy themselves with their own equipment as they are now banned. It is only to be used for my own work purposes and I will not open any emails that feature bad language, Youtube videos, or any jokes and pictures containing anything of a pornographic nature. I have had enough of wiping down dirty keyboards and running spyware checkers to rid myself of illicit websites containing filthy jokes and links to seedy and frankly disgusting sites of a lurid nature. The Internet was designed for professional purposes, not for deprivation.
