Luna the Laptop

Since this is the first blog entry I’ll be posting via my new laptop, I think it’s just appropriate that I make this all about her. And when I say “her”, I mean the laptop. Her name is Luna, named after that trippy Harry Potter character, Luna Lovegood. I just finished a Harry Potter movie marathon when I bought her! Don’t judge me!

After months of saving up for my very own laptop, I finally bought one last Monday, and so far, she’s been a darling. I finally got around to install a wireless router too because really, a laptop is probably 80% useless without Internet connection.

Luna is a Compaq Presario CQ40-107AU. I had Windows Vista Home Basic installed on her and this is my first experience with this OS. The first few days, I was like a caveman discovering Fire for the first time because I’ve been a Windows XP user for so long. In fact, if a copy of Windows XP was available in the store where I bought Luna, I would’ve had that installed instead of Vista.

Anyhoo, more sexy pics:

So there you go. My new laptop, Luna. It’ll be easier for me now to go online and bug everybody on the Internet! YAY!

    Luna is so sexy. When I get my own laptop I’ll name it "Edward", just so I can say "Oh My Edward" just died! (referring to the emptied battery) :P *I know. Lame, right?*

    any thoughts on why you chose this particular model, as opposed to getting, say, a Macbook? or even HP?

    Ooh love it! If you can, try upgrading home basic to home premium.:) I can honestly assure you it’s way better.

    Vista takes a lot getting used to, but you’ll learn to love it as it grows on you.:)

    And I thought I was the only one still on XP.
    Now that you're on Vista like everyone else, maybe I really am the only one left. :(
