Okay, in absolutely awesome news, John II is made of win and my backup so far seems to have worked perfectly. Still getting used to things like working speakers and a screen that's kind of aweing in size (seriously. I keep having to jiggle the text around--everything else is fine but text. And it's very, very bright.)
But fic! Safe! Email! Safe! Music! Safe! Some--er, other stuff! Safe! Even my firefox settings were there, and seriously, I just--John and I are very happy.
I will continue to purr at him while trying to get my screen down to a slightly darker shade of blinding white. Cause man. This is very, very white.
But! It's all pretty! And--other stuff. Still finding and reinstalling programs and firefox scripts, and um, basically, happy.
*infatuated* He's so pretty.

From:I'm sure you won't find it too difficult to get used to working speakers and a huge screen. Really, I think you're up for the challenge. ;)
On a slightly related note, I love the name for your computer. I think I have to name mine. Hmmm.

From:*g* The screen is teh same physical size, but man, the *resolution* is odd. I'll get used to the small text, but definitely--disconcerting. But in a good way!
Names are good. Easier to yell when computer is not acting well. *nods firmly*

Usually you can make the screen dimmer by holding the function key and using the arrow keys, or other keys with the little sun icon.
