I feel certain that your ingenuity will quickly find a use for it.

Thanks for blogging. Your documenting your hobby, as many others have mentioned, is both generous and inspiring. I gave away a ten year-old laptop this holiday season to a needy friend, and continue to hack happily away on two others, in large part thanks to your tips and tales. Surely you have written a book by now? :D

Wishing you all the best in the coming year.
