Well we went wireless over the weekend...with the prospect of turning our current office / computer room into a nursery in the coming months we needed to come up with a plan to be a bit more flexible with the computers. I'd been toying with the idea of going wireless for awhile, but seeing as we had a perfectly good set up with the wires it wasn't really necessary. But now it's time for change. So we opened up the purse strings a little and invested in some new hardware, including a wireless network laser jet printer (more cost effective than the desk jet). Got everything working eventually, (printer took a little bit of effort as we were overlooking the obvious, Jagr got that problem solved so we could connect).
I may have the need towards the end of the pregnancy to be on bed rest but still need internet availability so this gives us the option of working pretty much anywhere in the apartment. I wanted to get this done before I started getting too big and cranky :) We also started planning a little bit about what we need to get rid of in terms of furniture and how to reorganize things a little better so that we have more room. For example the large coffee table in the living room will have to go it takes up so much space and the corners are a bit dangerous. The cat tree will also probably go it's not really been used by the cats since we moved and it will give us yet more space in the living room for the kids to play. My desktop computer and the old printer we are going to put into storage for when they are older...there isn't really anything wrong with it and it will be perfectly adequate for what they need, I also probably won't put it onto the internet for a long time, as it doesn't have a wireless connection I would feel safer as I don't want them to be unsafe and I do want to monitor what they do on line, sorry kids your Mum isn't a computer novice...
