So they upgraded our computers to Windows 7 (this is about a year after emailing tech support about what would happen once XP support ran out and received no response). Have a huge ass screen - 22" widescreen compared to the 19" standard LCD I had before this. Annoyed because my room was left in a mess so spent free time cleaning things up. Although I have Win7 at home, the Pro edition is very different with HUGE icons everywhere (even at the smallest icon setting).

Desktop scaling? Or just change the icon zoom level.

We recently got new Lenovo desktops and laptops in the office. Those who got desktops received a 22" screen, and those of us with laptops didn't. The desktoppers thought that was highly amusing, until the gaffer let me order a 24" Dell IPS for my desk.  My laptop dock arrives next week.

A&F is stupidly expensive over here in comparison to the US too, got an extra suitcase each coming back from the states so going to be stocking up on clothes and perfume/aftershave and some extra bits too _________________TwitterCharlie Brooker: Macs are glorified Fisher-Price activity centres for adults; computers for scaredy cats too nervous to learn how proper computers work; computers for people who earnestly believe in feng shui.

You know your day is not going well when you think you can solve problems using a python script :S

It's really not going well if you then have to write a Ruby script to do it  _________________TwitterCharlie Brooker: Macs are glorified Fisher-Price activity centres for adults; computers for scaredy cats too nervous to learn how proper computers work; computers for people who earnestly believe in feng shui.

I hope you find this headline from a local paper as worrying as I did: "Paignton human centipede record bid back on"

Can I recommend that if you have a nice park near you that you use it? Especially before the weather gets really bad? The little change does you good if you haven't been in a while!

No parks around here, but lots of country walks. I go every day with the dog along the canal or river or in the woods.
