Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton!

16. Thanks. I've suffered terrible DU withdrawal these past near 2 weeks now.

However, the super dooper wi-fi signal booster finally arrived today, and with a lot of trial and error I found a place where it actually works, a little better even than before.

It doesn't hurt for now but I'm still working on the old laptop. The Acer Chromebook is factory refurbished, so it didn't come with tech support or a printed manual, and I haven't YET managed to examine the non-internet functions. It works fine at the library where I hate to work, and it won't automatically load the driver for the new booster; so I can't use it at home yet. But in time I'll crack the code and all will be well there too. Just a matter of time and maybe a ton more sweat and tears. Yet I think it will be worth it in the end, and this 8-yr-old laptop will croak eventually.

Unfortunately most of my first internet evening has been spent on catching up on email, signing petitions etc. Let's see how far I can get caught up on DU threads before I crash.
