We have a new member of the Karen Leah Photography family: my new Dell.

If I could upload photos, I would (I am going through such work withdrawl right now-but my house is spotless); and will when it's up and running and all customized (It needs a decal; I'm thinking Hello Kitty). I am in awe of this machine. 52 pounds. It's gorgeous. Even the box was decorated. Brian instantly started plotting what games he wanted to install on it. I instantly looked for the lock preventing this. (World of Warcraft does not scream, "wedding").

I am speechless. The word "tower" doesn't describe it...it's SILVER!! I mean, it shames the rest of my office equipment; Brian and I just stared at it when it was all set up...when we noticed that it has color coordinated lights we turned the lights off, sat cross-legged on the floor and stared at *MY* new lit up toy like children.

The previous machine served us well. It retired itself after many faithful years of service. But, um, while I wish it had consulted me before "retiring," (Hey, I worked every weekend since May, except my 30th birthday, it should too) :-) it did its job well and helped me create come amazing images over the years.

And CS4 premiers this week!!! CS4 with all of the new toys and filters my new baby can hold!! Ahhhh!!! Hurry up, Monday, I need to get to work!
