Black Friday or Blue Monday?

Huzzah, huzzah!

Well, it seems the Gods of Black Friday were smiling on me at "oh-dark-thirty" on that frosty morning, as I arrived home from my little shopping jaunt with a shiny new laptop.

Of course, that means that I spent the rest of the holiday weekend sitting with my eyes glued to the (extremely sharp and crystal-clear) screen, restart after restart, while I tried to load it up with everything I needed and make it as handy and familiar as my old warhorse was.
I'm nearly there.
