Bad news: I'm getting downgraded

I need a new computer, right away. As of Tuesday I’ll be stuck with a ten year old Pentium II again, running (at best) Windows 2000. No more laptop. Doesn’t look like I’ll be getting a new computer for Christmas, either.

At this point, it looks like the end of my computer programming life. (Yay for pessimism.) Anyone able to help turn my frown upside down? Let me know. And quickly.

Right now I’m looking at possibilities for the survival of Drupal Publisher. I should still be able to work on it, but testing it won’t be much of a possibility. After all, Visual Studio 2008 doesn’t run on Win2k (although 2005 does, and I still have my VS2005 discs) and Live Photo Gallery requires at least Windows XP (and really, they aren’t joking about Vista being preferred).

Any companies in the greater Toronto area looking for a coder willing to work for little more than food and transit money? Please, get in touch!
