Love, hate...

Just because I don't like to leave loose ends lying about:

• I stuck my new processor into my new motherboard. I stuck all the little plugs into their little sockets. I put them back in again, the right way *ahem*. And then I pressed the power button... and it did work, but darnit, the hard drive didn't like it. Long story short: everything was backed up, the hard drive was formatted, and voila - here I am, with a fresh new (in parts) computer, going FASSSSST and behaving beautifully. I love it :)
  
• Sparky may not be OK. The poor lad. We find out tomorrow if he's going to make it. I hate that :(
