Next friday at 10:15 CET the time has come: A 2-week trip to St. Petersburg with my girlfriend and a good friend of mine.
All the components for the laptop have arrived, only the laptop itself isn't here yet. When Japan-Direct first received it, it had to be sent back to get it's 512MB RAM upgrade, and while it is back with them now, they report they're still waiting for the extra batteries to arrive {gnarl}.
So I won't be seeing it before my trip to Russia, but I suppose that don't matter much... I'm looking forward to seeing the beautiful city again.
