Outdoor blogging

Well, I couldn't resist it. I had conflicting urges to to be outside in this awesome weather, versus trying to get some of my long-neglected computer work done. My old laptop, besides having a dead battery, didn't have a screen that was very useful in bright light.

So I bought a new one.

I should have done this years ago!

Now all I need is actual content to write about, and I'll be all set. But for now, fiddling with all the configuration settings will suffice.

EDIT: Of course, it seems that "Bright Screen" and "Battery Life" are kind of incompatible. Looks like I'll have to work on my settings a little more...
