Just sent my house mate to the emerg... he had to be told that epidermal necrosis was not a "wait until morning" issue and that he needed to get his ass in to the hospital yesterday.

Brother is flying in today, family will be gathering at my house as it is 3 blocks from the hospital and it looks like I will be doing a lot of visiting... am staying occupied by f'ing with computers. Did fresh Win7 Ultimate installs on my desktop and net book, got everything networked, and am running backups.

My new old box is supposed to be here on Friday... this is my nephew's current bit of hardware which is barely fast enough for what he does.
