Since, I moved in to our wonderful home, the iMac has been sitting in the back bedroom. Now I guess some would call it the front bedroom because that room is nearest the street. I call it the back bedroom because we spend most of our time in the living room end of the house. That make the main part the front of the house, right. For that matter, there is no door back there so you come into the front and way to the back.
Well, I have been looking for a computer station for a while. With the menagerie (two medium/large dogs, three cats, and a dozen fish), we needed a place with door to keep the ambulatory beasts from exploring the system and pitching it to the floor. I could see the cats walking past and gently nudging the whole things to the tile floors. I found a cabinet that would work on-line, but I wanted to see and touch. I also wanted it now instead of when it comes. I finally gave up the first avenue of attack and went straight to the manufacturer's web site. No one in the area carried the one I wanted, so I found another one a Staples thanks to their handy "where can I buy it" feature.
Saturday,it took way to long to do the project. We started by putting the gently used blue sectional on the street. Why haul something off when a willing passer-by will do it for you? We put it on the sreet by 11:00 and it was gone by 3:00! The Computer Armoire I found came in a box too big for us to carry in from the car, so I brought it in piece by piece. The instructions were good. I only had to take two pieces off and switch them. After I put it all back together, everything fit just fine. The printer shelf pulls out, so I can now use the scanner without breaking my back or crawling on the floor
Tonight, we even watched and episode of Nova using the TV receiver I have for the iMac, then we watched Chris and Kristi's wedding.
