Two things.
One...
A good friend at work fixed this tablet up for me and gave it to me for Christmas. It's a decent little machine. 2 ghz core 2 duo, 1 GB RAM, 75 GB hard drive, wifi, bluetooth, card reader, and of course the fact that it's a tablet. I managed to find a battery for it in the back room that lasts 34 minutes. All in all...I think I can live with this as a primary computer even by comparison to the MacBooks I used to use. I turned in my loaner today, by the way. I'm posting from said tablet, which needs a name. The 1024x768 resolution and 12-inch screen make me feel claustrophobic, and I'm not used to Windows at all anymore. I'm missing several of my favorite apps, most especially Adium. But you know what? I can live with that. I've taken to this computer some already.
Two...
It turns out my parents had some flex spending thingy on their insurance that needed to get used up by the end of the year. And they were kind enough to use it to purchase a 60-day supply of Nuvigil for me. If the appeal's going to work, it will be done long before the 60 days run out.
Now it's up to me. Up to me to step up to the task and get a job and make money and do okay.
