you know you're a geek . . .

if you cheer out loud when my powerbook recognized the new memory i installed.

i've been in the biz long enough to know how difficult a lot of this stuff used to be. lately, i've upgraded my system software effortlessly, upped the memory on my powerbook and i'm getting ready to install a new hard drive. this $500 upgrade will keep a 2.5 year old machine working for me.

if i can install memory on a laptop, how come we haven't figured out some other basic stuff? like how to fix global warming, feed all our children and ensure everyone lives without fear.
