Day 3

Not a whole lot new today. My packages from Newegg.com shipped. There are two packages, presumably one is the case, and one is everything else. They left CA on July 26, 12:02pm, and are currently being held in Indianapolis, IN (as of 2:04pm, so they may have moved again without the site being updated). The delivery estimate for both is July 29, before 4:30pm. The monitor is slowly moving along, but it appears to be going by mule, as it is due to arrive August 2nd. It has left CA, but I don’t know where it is now.

The items from Buy.com don’t appear to have left the warehouse yet. So far things are progressing about as expected: I’ll be waiting for the sound card. Oh well, I’ll have most of it this weekend.

I spent a little time earlier today uninstalling software from my current computer that I don’t use anymore, and making a list of what I do use so that I know what I have to do to setup the new machine when I have it built. There’s a fair amount of software to install, but it could be worse. I certainly don’t have to do it all in one sitting, there are only a few things that I consider manditory.

Until tomorrow…
