Dell comes through

This morning they called and said my new hard drive had arrived, could they install it between 12 and 3. A guy came at 2:45, switched the drives in about 3 minutes. No tools necessary. No screws, rails, power connectors, data connectors, like in the old days. The drive just goes into a bracket which goes into the computer. He said it would take an hour or so for the operating system install itself. Which it did.

So now I just have to restore all the stuff from Carbonite. It'll probably take 13 days, like the last time.
