  Srsly... I can has Photoshop!

  I have it! CS3! Whoooo! I've only justregistered it now.

  I can do art again! Whee!!!

  @Fetus: I tried looking at getting Linux, but there's too freakin' many! I finally decided on Ubuntu and then it gave me even MORE options! So which would you recommend? I always figured Ubuntu but would rather get advice from a Linux user...

  Srsly... IT HAS ARRIVED!

  I am typing on my new laptop right now! It is of the HP Pavilion DV5 series, with 4GB RAM! Now that's a lot of sheep!

  ...and I discovered quite accidently it was wrieless - I forgot to plug in the modem cable but not until after I had Firefox installed an running did I realise this. Whooo! Net is still a bit slow though. Hopefuly it will pick up speed. Not sure about Linux - should I dual boot or use Virtual Box? Could i do both?

  Srsly... New Zealand has scammers too

  For those that still haven't noticed, the "Srsly..." part means that the topic is about laptopness.
  For an update on the laptop itself, see the previous one. This one is about the Photoshop bit.
  I did mention it MIGHT be gotten; the real story is that we officially won the auction on TradeMe but Dad refused to pay unless the seller provided a phone number or address, so Dad could chase them up if it was a scam. After a few days internet silence, we got an eMail back admitting that 'his son' put on an illegal copy of all the Adobe programs up for sale under his username. Which is a scammer way of saying "You caught me; here's an excuse so you can't report me". It is also a way of saying that ALTHOUGH I DO HAVE A LAPTOP, I don't have an image software lined up yet and I don't know when I'll get one. BUT it will be before the summer holidays are over, before Feburary.
