Becky and I have spent the last few days here in El Paso for some of our Christmas vacation.  I took some time to clean my father-in-law's pc from the many viruses and spyware programs that were grinding it to a halt.  It only had 64MB of RAM, which I upgraded to 384 using some old RAM that I happened to have in one of my bags. In the process of cleaning, I upgraded his AOL software to the 9.0 “security edition“ which comes with anti-spyware and anti-virus software, which was actually pretty nice.

Anyway, it's working great now and we're having a great time. I always realize how much I miss broadband when I'm here. Just googling something is such a huge ordeal. It snowed quite a bit yesterday evening, but the ground's still pretty warm so it's almost all gone now.
