Mexican Pride
Musings from and about
Mexican Pride
Where have we been? Watching a LOT of Olympic events. We have not had cable television service since the 90’s (as in 1990’s). We were forced to have it with our Internet connection. For a 10 mb per second connection we bit the bullet. But, now we are getting 3-5 channels of live Olympic coverage from 4 AM to 3:30 in the afternoon (it may start earlier – 4 AM is early enough for us).
We got so excited we went out to look at BIG television sets. 32” upwards to 46” behemoths. Last time we had cable we had a huge projection style television. Now with HD and LED a new generation of quality is upon us.
As mentioned many times electronics are costlier here in Mexico – we looked anyway. While browsing around the electronics department at Chedraui Supermarket we spotted a cute Acer netbook on sale with 15% discount. Of course this was the last day of a three day sale – we had to make a decision now.
We wanted to replace Anita’s broken HP laptop. She has needed her own computer!
We checked the specifications; had them fire one up (you would think with 25 boxes of units and a splash sale that would have been happening – but no). We waited while a salesperson found five keys to open five separate locks protecting one glass display. Then find the cords etc. Finally a hands on test. We got more and more impressed and went for it.
Buying a new computer – the fun just begins. Loading bunches of software follows – often for days. We are on day two. Add to the complication that we replaced Windows Starter (in Spanish) with Windows 7 Home Premium (in English). We had to go on the Internet and find all the device drivers – quite a project.
The Calypso Conputer Lab
This little computer has a 10.1” screen. We connected it to a larger HP monitor. It also will play into our VIZIO HD television via an HDMI cable – playing 1081 HD quite well. A 320 GB hard drive, 2 GB RAM, card reader for my camera, 3- USB ports, VGA and HDMI video out, Ethernet, built-in camera and microphone – for less than $250 USD in Mexico – color us happy!
Today was a very good day for Mexico in Olympic terms. Before today we had two silver diving medals. Then today a bronze and a silver in the same women’s archery event – wow! To see two Mexican athletes on the three medalists podium made us proud.
Our Girls – Silver and Bronze!
It has been an easy fit to change our sports allegiance to Mexico. This occurred a few years back. Of course the power house U.S. has a bus load of medalists and medals already (Day Five); more than even China as we write this. Mexico has 4 medals and we are darn proud of our athletes! Stay Tuned!
