Just a quick heads up, for the next week or so I'll be permanently AFK. I sold both my tower and my laptop to finance some new technology for Japan, and they just so happened to sell within three days of each other; the tower's gone out the door, and I'm typing this up on the recently formatted laptop that's due to go out in the mail tomorrow.

On the plus side, I have a shiny new Vostro 1500 being built for me by the "wonderful" employees working for Dell. Last I checked, the estimated ship date is the 29th of this month; with three-to-five day shipping, I'll probably be back up and running by next Monday.

Until then, it's lots of reading and face time with my DS. See you all in a week!

P.S. Autistic Mode has nothing to do with autism; it's a term used in Ghost in the Shell to indicate that someone has turned of wireless communications in their cyberbrain.
