A Windows XP Dell (complete with a CRT monitor weighing roughly 300 pounds) for the sole purpose of checking work-related e-mails. CRT monitor? Really? What year is this, 1990?
Adobe CS...the original. That's like so 2000.
F12 does nothing for I'm still using OS X 10.3.9. The key here is sans widgets. I cannot live without widgets. I just can't do it.
A trackball mouse, which, to be honest, I didn't even know they made anymore. Oh giant mouse that in totality is bigger than my head, what purpose do you serve? I alone keep Wacom tablets in business for every time I've started a new job (all two times) that is among my first demands. That and a computer that is of this decade. I don't think that's asking too much of a multi-billion dollar company...
I'm not an administrator on my own computer. I need "IT" to come and enter the password every time I need to do something. Yesterday I wanted to repair my permissions. No, illegal. Access denied. I think I finally called them enough times that they realized this girl must know what she's doing if we don't even know what repairing permissions means....so they sequestered admin privileges; damn it feels good to be a computer nerd ahem savvy user.
I can't break through the Instant Messenger firewall, I guess I'll stick with gChat, which, after using Adium for the last two years is like pulling my toenails out one-by-one.
