Hospital Visit
Drove Bingning's mum to her appointment at the Dental Hospital. Took Leon for his first visit to the City of Manchester Stadium on the way back.
New Computer
Collected some more bits for the new computer from Aria Technology:
Cherry CyMotion Expert Combo Keyboard (black)
- Logitech Premium Optical Mouse (black)
- Sony DRU820A 16x Dual Layer DVDRW
- OCZ Platinum XTC 2GB DDR2 RAM kit, PC2 6400
Arrived back home to find that I'd missed City Link's attempted delivery of the other bits, so will have to wait until tomorrow to put it all together.
Whilst I was at Aria, I also bought a new PSU and some case fans to replace those in my current desktop box, which has become very noisy recently. It's certainly much quieter now.
I actually had to drill some holes in the plastic front fascia of the case to allow air in for the front case fan (there's a nice fan mount there and holes in the metal chassis, but nowhere for the air to come from!).
