Share the power

I spent most of what a normal person would term "today" with Matt and Steven, as they were without power up until a few hours ago. (In reality, I've been up for 21 hours now, and I'm getting reeeeally tired.) Part of our travels involved Fry's Electronics, where I bought a nice new monitor. It's widescreen, so DVDs look excellent on it. In retrospect, I should have bought a widescreen monitor long ago, since I use my monitor as my TV too. World of Warcraft looks kickass, though it just seems like "too much space" for everyday computing. I'm sure I'll get used to it. Thanks to Christmas deals, the price was actually quite reasonable (under $400 for a 22" widescreen LCD), and getting a power adapter for my old monitor would have been $100. I guess I'll get it one at some point, though I don't really have a use for it right now.
