Desktop Up

Mood:
Happy

Thanks to Ed’s help the emergancy replacement desktop is now up and runnning. It should dual boot Windows XP and Linux (Kubuntu) but we didn’t actually completely finish off so currently it’ll only boot to XP (this was caused by forgetting to write down the XP product key then having it sent by Rachel via SMS only to discover the middle part missing. In the end we had to walk from Ed’s back to my house to find it out). At some point he promises to finish it off, and give me the files (recovered form laptop drive once I realised I hadn’t got ‘em first time round) which are on his file server still.
