Got the lappy! (Too bad my new ram is 1/2 what its supposed to be!)

So, I got my laptop on Tuesday, one day head of schedule (shocking given my luck lately) and I had gotten only 256meg of ram because one of my co-workers (Chris L. - Hey Chris!) said that it would be cheaper to get more memory on my own. So, yesterday afternoon I went to Fry's Electronics to by a 512meg SO-DIMM to put into the laptop. I get home and put in the new chip but the laptop keeps telling me I only have 512meg of ram. Needless to say I was pretty confused. I call dell support and they suggest taking the OEM ram out and putting in the chip I bought to see what it comes up as. 256meg. *SIGH* So, I have to drive back to my local fry's, which is like 20 minutes from where I'm living and hope they don't try to give me crap about the fact that they sold me a 256 meg chip in 512 meg clothing. Oy.

In other news... well, better not talk about work. Again, that could get me in trouble. I will say that I still completely LOVE C# (a programming language with features from C, C++ and Java).
