Last night, I finally upgraded to snow leopard. Re-installed, really, I never trust an OS upgrade process. I'm hoping this allows me to eke out better performance, especially flash apps. Unfortunately I have a model that's known for overheating really badly, and when it does it causes the wireless card to flake out. During the backup of files, I found it also causes hard drive problems! Super, super fun. Luckily allowing it to cool off fixed that. I've never replaced a hard drive in this model before, although I understand it to be possible.

Now, to reload all my apps, and download Portal! :-D You've probably seen it a dozen places now, but portal is available until May 24th free. And there's a mac version. ♥

[EDIT]: Here's my todo, will update as I think of things. I'm open to suggestions!
