I jumped on the opportunity to immediately go out and purchase a new one. But Military Man, he had to study, examine, read every computer magazine there is and then follow up with conversations with his computer techie friends. Our last computer (may it rest in peace) was built to Military Man’s specifications and lasted us close to 8 years. (That’s a pretty long time for a computer.) So when it came time to purchase our new baby, Military Man was not going to just purchase the first computer that captured his eye, nooooo, Military Man had to have another one built. Because let’s face it, if the dinosaur lasted us 8 years, then the next one better last just as long. So, last week our new baby arrived. (Getting it set up has been another issue, Military Man's computer techie friend had to come over today and get our wireless internet set up for us. If if you haven't figured it out by now, Military Man, try as he might, is not computer savvy. But don't tell him that.)
Here is the dinosaur which is still sitting in the computer/man room (Military Man apparently is so bonded to it, he is not ready to part with it.)

See, I told you it was a dinosaur.
Here is the newest addition to our family…
Isn’t it purty!!! Hello, my friend, welcome to the family. You have no idea how wanted and appreciated you are. So, I figure over the next few days/weeks (depending on if I can get Military Man off the computer long enough for me to play) I will be bringing you updates on what life has been like over the past two months. My life has been interesting to say the least and I have a few more gray hairs as a result. I hope you will not be bored.

Great to see you back.
I thought maybe you had done what I did once. I forgot my log on & pass word to my blog.
getting old sucks.
Glad your back.
Congrats on the new computer! Good to see you back!
Ah, fun. A laptop. Careful of the carpel tunnel syndrome!
Good to have you back!
Thanks, glad to be back. I really have missed blogging. I have been going through blogger deprivation. I love the laptop, I especially love the wireless internet. Now I can blog from anywhere in the house!
Betsy needs this outlet, it's therapeutic!

Damn that comparison shopping. The Geek does it too and it makes me crazy. Glad you're back!
