Breaking The Shackles
After months of studied deliberation, (as well as being sidetracked by the new condo), I’ve finally taken delivery of my first ever laptop – the new Sony VAIO VGN-FW190 – with this being its virgin post.
It was becoming painfully obvious that my old PC just wasn’t cutting it for a supposed game developer, (I’ve never really been a PC gamer), especially when it wasn’t even hitting the minimum requirements for some of even the most basic of software. I was, however, loath to give up the dual-screen setup I’ve grown accustomed to at work and at home so have found some solace in the FW’s unique 16.4” widescreen.
If it even allows two documents or webpages side by side during my various forays into graphic design or simply gives the 3D viewports a little more breathing space, it’ll be worth finally breaking free of the constraints of the desk. Now to find a café sur le Plateau…

Jonathan, you’re old computer wasn’t cutting it even when you lived in Scotland. I remember thinking, ‘works in the games industry and has a mouse-trap sized box for a computer and only now you’ve decided to change it. Well, nothing can beat miphone. I can access my desktop through it, amongst many onther things. Let the battle of consumerable technology begin!!!
