A New Leaf
[Barny Cusp] I have a new computer. Mostly. Well, I have a new CPU in my motherboard and a new version of windows to cope with the extra 32 bits it now commands. It’s a hell of a lot faster at many things, though weirdly clunky at a few other, simple things. Like Peggle. I had a go last night (waiting while I downloaded all the programs that I use in the background to get Windows working in a way that keeps me sane) and was getting, easily, four frames per second. Maybe more. I have no idea why a small, casual game would be suffering while Team Fortress was running much faster, smoother and (according to a random passer-by) with better graphics. But then that’s what I keep Johnny around for. He’ll be sure to explain it, then explain it again using smaller words and then finally he’ll break out his ‘Education Puppets’ which will be what I’m waiting for all along, of course.
Witness the wonders of a new comic, drawn (and not conceived) on this very computer. Which is partly new!
