On a whim, I decided to buy a new laptop on eBay. This will be my 3rd IBM thinkpad in 4 years. I started with a X20 in the summer of 2001, then upgraded to a X24 in the summer of 2002. This X31 will be my third.
The DSL man from Covad / Speakeasy will be coming on Monday to install DSL. The laptop will arrive Monday.

Sigh.
I’ve been doing release and packaging work for Mono for about two years now, yet things are still a bit of a mess:
Mono: Dead on Arrival.
My summer internship will be ending in two weeks. I’ve been trying to implement System.IO.Compression
but haven’t made a lot of progress. I think, if there is one thing I’d like to fix up before the end of this summer, it should be this every continuing packaging and installation mess.
Wish me luck.
