Warning: What follows is a full-on, hot-blooded RANT. That being said, its also 100% true (based on my personal experience). Do with it what you will.
In the market for a computer? Do not…I repeat DO NOT purchase a DELL. In January of 2006, after four years of faithful service from my Alienware desktop workstation, I decided that I needed a computer upgrade, and that I was tired of being tied to a stationary location for my computer. I wanted the freedom that comes with mobility. So I decided to buy a laptop.

So last month I posted an update on how our first couple of weeks here in Knoxville went. This post follows up on what’s happened since then now that we’ve been here a full two months. The short of it is, a LOT has happened, the long of it is…

Well, Crys, Phoenix and I have officially been residents of Knoxville for just over two weeks now. Overall, we love it here. I’d say we’ve gotten off to a fantastic start.

Most people who’ve known me and/or my wife for a while know that we’ve never really felt “settled” in Ohio. From even before we were married, we both knew we definitely did NOT want to live in Dayton, Ohio for the rest of our lives. For her, it mostly had to do with weather and a general lack of much of anything interesting in Dayton at all (with the major of exception of good people…there will be a lot of people here that we’ll miss dearly). For me, its always been about being closer to family.
