all may not be lost

In case you missed it yesterday, my computer died. Iz ded. It's gone to the great Mac beyond. I fired up my even older iMac, from which I was able to post to (but not read) LJ, and look at my email, but that was about it. I was crushed.

Well, this morning I asked our Mac guru if there were any extra Macs laying around that I could take, and he thought he had an extra tower that they wanted to get rid of. I said that I'd also need a monitor, and he said that there were extra monitors around. So I may have a new(er) computer by the end of today, which would make me oh so very happy. Really, anything would be better than what I have. As I said, it's ancient in computer years, about 11 years old.

So cross your fingers for me!

I wish I had the funds to just loan you the $ for a new computer (I know you'd be good for it) but my own situation is precarious right now. When my computer died about a year ago I had to choose between a used tower (~$200) or an Acer Netbook for around the same amount, and I chose the Netbook. It's a little too small to do any serious work on, but my work computer is a laptop so I bring that home a lot. Hope things work out for you soon.

Thanks, honey! I appreciate the sentiment. :)
