The backend of WordPress used to work fine in IE8 until a recent update changed that. Thankfully, my school’s website renders beautifully in Internet Explorer 8. It will load the content (sometimes) but will not render it as it should. However, for most modern webpages that use more advanced features and layout techniques (HTML5, etc.), Internet Explorer fails miserably. Internet Explorer 8 is “fine” for simple things. Thankfully, the T42 is new enough that it has wireless LAN. In essence, my goal was to get the T42 online.

Since the T420 went down, I’ve been scrambling to find a way to at least use the T42 for some things… While I can easily use school computers for doing homework, I wanted a way to do research, update the blog, and just stay up to date in general.
