My new computer - Part 1

I love my new computer because I can watch videos without  dealing with buffering. I bought my old computer several years ago when I had a dial-up modem and before high definition television. When high definition television came in my old T.V. was not equipped to handle it, so I had the choice of buying a new T.V. or bundling my phone, internet, and television services. Since it was cheaper to bundle the services then to buy a new television, I bundled the services and chose a Direct Service Link plus Satellite service through the phone company.

That was all right for a while, but then I decided it would be more economical to go with the cable company. I now had a cable modem, which was truly high speed. The problem was that I still had my old computer. I had a high speed modem and a low speed computer, as a results, I encountered buffering when it came to watching videos. I now have a high speed computer with a high speed modem.

    I went wireless through my cable company

    The tech from the cable company just left, after installing the wireless internet connection. I am now living in the twenty-first century and it feels good. I believe I will like having a wireless connection. I suspect it may make my life easier; at least, that is what someone told me.

    At 65 going on 66, I do want somethings to make my life easier. Of course, I do not want things to get so easy that I become complacent and forget that to survive in this world I have to be tough. I do not think a wireless internet connection will make me complacent.

    I believe the wireless connection and my new computer will make blog entries easier and less irritating then using my old computer. I still have the old computer and it is now connected to the wireless equipment, so I can still use it to go online when I need to. Since I cannot connect my old printer to my new computer, I need to use the old computer to pay bills online. When I use online bill paying, I have to print proof I paid the bill for my records.
