With Comicopia electronic deadline tomorrow, I’m happy to have finally made the time to type up my comments tonight. I’ve had them written long-hand for a while now, but just never got around to transcribing them. Oh well, at least the rest of the zine was prepared ahead of time 🙂
I must say I’m greatly enjoying my new system. I replaced my P2 500 (4Gig HD, 128Meg Ram) for a P3 600 (9Gig HD, 192Meg Ram) on Friday. It was the best $50 I ever spent. It took me over 5 hours on Saturday to transfer all my files over (just doing a copy via a direct linkup) but afterwards, it was a short matter to re-install what I needed to work with. And now, I finally have a system with enough disk space to handle my playing around with digital images and Chantale has inherited my old system which is plenty strong enough for her to finally get some games she couldn’t play on her P1. Happiness all around 🙂
In Shuster Awards news, we’re finalizing the nominees this week. I think this means that by next week or so, preparations will be getting underway to get the ball rolling on the web. And I’ve finally decided that yes, I will be going to the Paradise Comics Toronto Comicon and be present at the inaugural Shusters event. I just realized that besides being what it is, the convention will also be my first one in years. I guess I’ll have to do a full job of detailing it for the following Comicopia 🙂
Okay, enough rambling. Time for some sleep. Tomorrow morning we go for Chantale’s monthly visit and see how things are propressing with the baby 🙂
