Ultimate & Elite

I upgraded my Windows Vista install last night, I went from Home Premium to Ultimate (I have a cool DreamScene background now ;) ) I'll have to reinstall GRUB at some point, because the upgrade means I can't boot into Ubuntu...though this is a good thing at the minute, because it means I can't fiddle with it (I always end up doing something like that :p)

Also I think I'll be buying an Xbox 360 Elite sometime in the next 3-5 weeks :) my brother want's his own Xbox 360, so I figured I might buy an Elite (bigger hard drive + HDMI = happy Joe ;) ) But I'm definitely waiting a little while, because just today, Microsoft announced a price drop in the Europe & UK Xbox 360 SKU's :D so that's good news for me!

UPDATE: I just noticed that when I have DreamScene running, if I unplug the laptop from charge, it pauses the video to conserve battery life! I think that's a clever little feature :) Especially because the background still looks good when paused.
