I'll have to check. I spent yesterday evening setting up the system (well, waiting for the system to set up itself), disabling fingerprint scan, and making the desktop look like a desktop and not teletubby land. I just submitted my new mac address to my ISP (maybe time for a router after all ... ), so I will finish the initial setup this weekend (replace Norton with McAffee or AntiVir, installing Mozilla, run the Win updates .... ) and then check it out.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

A piece of friendly advice: take a piece of reliable band-aid and close shut the Gates of Oblivion... errr, I mean, the webcam. Perhaps it's because of 1984, perhaps because of 2001, but I'm a bit paranoid about those damned things. I have never bought a laptop or screen with integrated webcam and I plan to keep doing so in the future.
