JHP are you sure we were on the same ship? My husband and I were on the last shakedown cruise and the Inaugural Voyage on the Voyager. That was March 2003. I don't blame you about getting dates mixed up, I have to sometimes work backwards to get the correct date. Although the inaugural voyage was almost a repeat of the trip that we had done on the Mariner in October/November we felt that it wasn't worth the airfare for six days. Besides there is usually an excursion that you had to forgo. ;)

There was a problem with the computer, but it had to do with rolling up obscene charges for a few online minutes. Christy finally had to disconnect the charges because of complaints. I and my husband certainly used the computers. They couldn't have still been in boxes. Perhaps they were in boxes (to be fair to you) if you went on the first shakdown, as opposed to the last. Hope that helps.
