nishatalithaFor those of you who use Firefox and like making it look pretty, I have found an extension called Personas for Firefox and this allows you to change the skins very easily. There are a lot of pretty options available.
I have had, unsurprisingly, a very computer intensive weekend. Carted Pania out to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
deepbluemermaid's place and fiddled with MS Word 2007 while copytyping recipes from her Mum's Cusine magazine. Given that I was working on an unfamilar computer (Vista, my God), Word 2007 didn't seem too bad to use - I really liked the little button for the superscript so I could put the degrees symbol in without going insert symbol. It makes typing recipes a lot easier. The tabs up the top were interesting and would probably take a little while to get used to, but again, might be quite good - once you adjusted. The ruler was surprisingly hidden, but I managed to pull it out. Sometimes, it's just a matter of what you're used to.
That being said, once the trial period is over, I will go back to whatever version I currently use on Annabelle quite happily.
Now my fingers are cold and I think I have done most of the fiddling around that I needed to, so I shall go take my other machine and go and sit in the lounge. Maybe I will even go and bring up some firewood. I don't know.
