On hiatus once again

I have a sad announcement to make. My trusty laptop of just about 4 years has decided enough is enough, and has handed in its resignation. Actually, that's not entirely true. Most of it is still in perfect working condition; however, the backlight on its screen wore out and now my display looks as thought it had been underexposed by about 3 stops, to the point where one can hardly make out anything on it at all.

Since I was planning to get a new laptop anyway, I'm thinking it may be a better idea to take this as a hint that the time has come for that upgrade rather than put more money into my old laptop. Since this has just happened in the last 24 hours, though, I'm still weighing my options, which may take a while.

The relevance of this news to this blog is that, since I won't have much access to my current photos, or much of a way of downloading and editing any photos I take from now until I figure this out, this blog will be on hiatus until I once again have some fully functioning form of personal computing.

Until then, wish me good luck. And be nice to your computers.
