I ordered an extra battery for the new laptop this morning. It ttok me awhile to track one down, because I kept searching for the number, along with various words. Words like: acer, battery, laptop, sanyo. All of these words are directly related to my battery, but in Google’s eyes, less is more. Just searching on the number brought up tons of hits, and I should have it in a week or so. it’s coming from China. Gotta love the internets.

All that remains is the wireless modem and soon, I will be able to move off this desk, and into the living room, where my comfortable home furniture is. And also my family In fact, I may give it a whirl tonight with the extra long ethernet cable. That would totally rock.
