I got me a Wii

2007

Small Wii IconIts been a while since a I posted and mostly thats because I've been moving home and without internet... So whats new? Well I bought myself a Nintendo Wii on Sunday as I've been toying with the idea for a while. My initial thoughts on it are: IT'S SO MUCH FUN!

I powered it up the day after boxing day to hear the lovely noise a Mac makes when you power it up… Followed by a rather unusual noise… A noise I've heard before… A noise that brought back memories of data loss… anger… and regret that I hadn't backed up…

Well I got my new keyboard and mouse to replace the very poor Bluetooth MX5000 Laser combo I had before and I'm pleased to say that the first 30 minutes of using it have been an absolute pleasure!
