My 6-year-old laptop hasn't been working well for a couple of months. Despite all the criticism I heard about Windows vista, I bought this new computer with the new operating system pre-installed. It doesn’t seem so bad. I just need some time to get used to it.
Starting July 1, all PCs sold in China should include a web-filtering software called Green damn. Oops! Sorry, it’s green dam-youth escort. Whatever, maybe I’m over-sensitive about “filtering”. Trust me, I’m old enough to judge what is “healthy” and what is not. But the new rule did hasten my decision to buy a new laptop. It’s a pity I can’t wait for Windows 7 to go on the market.
Now what shall I do with my old laptop? It’s still usable; it just works slowly, like an old man gradually losing his agility. However old it is, I love the rhythmical sound made by the fingertips tapping on the keyboard. It’s been with me for too long to be let go.
