Actually, I've been here since about 11 am (flying time, waiting in extreme boredom for luggage time, and driving time). But I haven't had a net connection until now.
It's not picture-perfect but it's darned close. Our two issues were a few logins without permissions (a coworker is fixing these, since they're on a system I don't know as well), and a computer with a dead power supply.
Fortunately, its role in the system, while important, isn't magical. We substituted an equivalent one, will update its ip in the morning, and are good to go.
The people here are just great - really friendly, with each other and visitors, joking around and cheerful. The area itself can only be called attractive if you like stark, high-desert sort of conditions (and I'm not that fond of hills with nothing but sage), but even so, it's pleasant enough.
And the trainer who came with us bought espresso honey sticks for everyone. The taste is odd but tolerable; fortunately, that was one per person, so I'm still sane to be around. ANY kind of honey stick, if I have 3 or so, will set me bouncing. I doubt there's much coffee or caffeine in the things, but still.
Feeling good about this. Hope I still am tomorrow - wish us all luck!
