401

With last Sunday’s trip I now have photographed 401 of South Carolina’s 461 Post Offices. Flickr and Old School Galleries have been updated. The new fangled flash gallery hasn’t been updated because it is kind of a pain and I’m thinking of just dumping it until I’ve finished the whole project.

Bought a Logitech EX110 Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Combo last Thursday to replace the aging and increasingly stiff OEM Dell. It was sort of an impulse buy, so it wasn’t until I got home and hooked it up that I read some reviews. XP had no problem working with the combo right from the get go and that was a good thing because I wanted to avoid loading the Logitech software as I suspected it might be bloatware. The reviews were correct in that the mouse was a little cheap feeling and noisy, but I liked the keyboard feel. One thing that was mentioned frequently was that the mouse went through batteries quickly (sometimes in as little as 3 weeks.) Hmmm.

When Donna tried it out and the first thing she noticed was there were no lights (Num, Caps or Scroll.) Turns out you can get some indication of those statuses on the monitor, if you install their software. That coupled with the battery issue makes me box it back up for return. We are back to stiff keys until my new Dell wired keyboard shows up in a couple days.
