How To Tell if the Honeymoon Period with your Laptop is OVER. (via ChilliCherrRuby)

Charming idea of new laptop use vs old laptop behavior. I guess when you have money you can treat things as old.

How To Tell if the Honeymoon Period with your Laptop is OVER. I’ve not reached the end of my idyllic life with my sweet Hewlett Packard precious. It’s coming, but maybe next year when I’ll only use it for basic things such as getting assignments done, and checking my mail on the university’s student webmail service. Monash uses Novell, just like BSB. Coincidence? Not really. However, lately, I’ve been experiencing signs that maybe happiness is coming to an end between my laptop and I. I regard it less than … Read More

My review of everything: the HP Compaq Mini 210-1012ei (via the heavy duty cool)

So this computer doesn’t work if you are a power user. It has Windows starter edition.

My level of skill in computers generally, 1 being nothing and 10 being uber geekness: maybe a 2 and a half. Maybe. In two words: it’s nifty. It’s slightly larger than your average Bible, and shiny and sleek. Grown-up men probably shouldn’t use it, it would look weird and ridiculous. Besides, this isn’t something you buy to say “Mine is bigger” (like with Hummers and stuff), because you would be lying. Warning: For the first three days of your own … Read More
