Doesn't that give you a clue - five days without a note. Not have I bathed, neither ate, nor drank, etc.

I wish I had my camera with me so I could - wait, I have my phone! Hold the line.

Ok, the first picture below shows my current work set-up.

I used my phone camera and sent the picture to my e-mail, then opened it in OneNote 2007. I annotated it in OneNote, then took a screen clipping, which I saved to my desktop (as a PNG). I then had to open the PNG in The GIMP and save it as a jpg to upload to here.

Despite all that effort, it's a pretty crappy picture.

I've got the ThinkPad on it's docking station, in multi-monitor mode, with a Gateway 24-inch flat screen LCD monitor. I'm using a wireless mouse and an external keyboard. I have an external hard drive for backup purposes.

I'm happy to say that I've been able to get the computer to recognize the network, so I have internet, I was able to install both network printers, and I was able to get Outlook 2007 to work with our Exchange server.

The only thing I can't figure out is how to synchronize Outlook through a Wi-Fi or dial-up connection. (I really don't like Outlook Web Access.)

Last night I made a drawing using the digitizer tablet and The GIMP. I've added that picture at the bottom.
