I’ve also been reinstalling all my favorite programs. Photoshop CS3 was the first thing I put on here, obviously lol. Then Firefox, WinRAR, and about a hundred little utilities I forgot I even used.
One weird thing is that the computer is almost silent. My old PC sounded like a vacuum cleaner whenever I turned it on. I got so used to the noise that now I keep checking to make sure this one is actually running.
I also copied over all of my old files and photos from an external drive. It took most of the afternoon, but at least nothing important was lost. I found some screenshots from 2007 that I completely forgot existed. Maybe I’ll post some of them later.
Gaming is way better too. I installed Minecraft and it actually runs smoothly now. No more waiting forever for chunks to load, which is pretty awesome. I’m thinking about trying a few newer games as well, although my internet connection is probably still the weakest part of the setup.
The only problem so far is that I keep opening random programs just because I can. Everything launches instantly and it still feels kind of magical after years of dealing with a slow machine.
Anyway, that’s the big news for today. Hopefully this computer lasts me a long time. If everything goes well, there should be more website updates, more screenshots, and maybe even a few new projects coming soon.
See you next update! :D
yay I'm 20 years old now
