That's right, you're still fresh to anime. Remember, if you want any other recommendations, feel free to ask. I like to think I know a lot of good shows. ^^
Right-o! I'll go find Honey and Clover right now. ^^
I have already downloaded Lovely Complex too. After reading the description in the Anime Club post, I thought, "Hm, short guy... That's me!" XD So I'm going to give that a try too.

Because you like Toradora!, then I definitely have to second Raina's recommendation of Honey and Clover. Excellent humor, good drama and the romance is intelligent and interesting (bet you didn't think such a thing was possible!). Toradora! has actually moved in a more Honey and Clover type of direction in the past couple of months, whereas in the beginning it's more like a better version of Lovely Complex.
Haha, Minorin actually weirded me out at first, too, but as the show gets more in-depth with the characters, she becomes a bajillion times more lovable. Just about every character in the show is likable to some degree, actually (even a character who shows up later, and who I know you will probably not like at first), and the mains are all great.
One of the things you'll quickly notice about Toradora! is that a lot of it is about people putting on an act. If someone seems dense, then he or she is probably pretending for some reason. These characters are much more perceptive than you'd expect for a romantic-comedy, although they are teenagers, so they don't quite get everything (and I think that aspect of them is also very well done).

Toradora was also outside of my typical genre selection, but boy howdy am I glad I jumped on the bandwagon with this one. It honestly does get better and better with each episode. Way to go listening to Shin! ^.^

I love Toradora!
Actually... it's the only Anime I've watched along with Fullmetal Alchemist so, yea. ^^;
But... I'll just follow what those two recommended and I'll watch Honey and Clover too. Haha.
I [still] hope you can get your computer fixed. Good luck. :]
