Recently, I've: A) graduated, B) had a birthday, and C) gotten a summer job. And as a result, I've gained a few new friends. Meet the gang!

First of all, we have Rodney. Oh, Rodney. He's sleek and smart, and he does well in high pressure situations. His only negative quality is that he can be a bit loud and whiny; he's got a violently squeaky hinge, and he moos when he gets too hot. But these are but small flaws, next to his shiny memory and impressively large hard drive, not to mention his slick 10.4 operating system. He's very bright and very pretty, and I love him desperately.

Next, we have the powerhouse of the group, Lex. Lex is slicker than Rodney, and he gives off an aura of pure class. He has a sexy indigo light, and a sleek gunmetal gray frame. Currently, he holds all my media files, plus a backup of everything on my laptop, and he's still got 85 gigs to spare without breaking a sweat. I'm a little intimidated by him, to tell you the truth.

But that's OK, because our last candidate, TURNBULL, wouldn't intimidate a damp rag. He's attractive, but not too swift. His name was originally going to be Diefenbaker, but every time I renamed him, he felt the need to change the spelling to an all-caps DIEFENBAKER, as well as create random NO NAME dmgs that don't seem to lead anywhere and/or have any purpose. And sometimes plugging him in takes a little coaxing. Clearly, this is no half-wolf; he wouldn't last a day in the wild. So TURNBULL it is.

Oh, my boys.

*g* They totally, totally do. This is after having a sucky laptop for a long time, though, so don't be too envious.

I totally understand you there. I went from having a laptop with like... a 4 GB hardrive to one with 60. But then THAT died a tragically overheated death. So now I have Shiny with 100 GB! Hooray media :D And Shiny is a traveler, California, Illinois Indiana, Ohio and Michigan.

Oooh, cool! I know, most of my excitement is like – omg, I can do stuff that *normal* people do *all the time*! I can download more than four episodes of TV shows without deleting anything!

LOL. Clearly, he's a Turnbull.

I want a new laptop! *seethes with envy*

GMAT - I named my iPod Rodney.

I think electronics are just predisposed to be named Rodney, you know? But yeah, *totally* a Turnbull, omg.
