From an adorable new netbook Scott brought home for me by suprise! It's so cute and tiny and awesome. I love it!

ricksang · November 2009

Those are cute! Congrats. My H bought me runnning shoes this week. Love them!

Night_Sprite · November 2009

I have a eee pc and love it.

Sunkissed_Bride · November 2009

Aw, how sweet!

aMrsin09 · November 2009

I 2nd the eee pc. The 8.5" does lead to some intereting typing/spelling errors though. What kind did he get you?

berryholly · November 2009

It's so cute and tinyThat's what she said.But really...go Scott! I love surprises.

Night_Sprite · November 2009

The 8.5 was too small for me. I got a 10.5 or 11. I don't remember right now.

J&K10910 · November 2009

Well...well...K went to Target at 9:30 to buy me Jelly Bellies to feed my PMS cravings. So take that!

For those of you with tiny computers, how do they compare to a normal sized laptop? My fiance is looking to get a new computer, because his regular sized Dell is old and has had many problems, and he is considering something like the netbook.

Umm...I don't really know what it is? BUT if someone has the link without knot tv, that'd be greeeeat.

Mine is 3x the computer my old desktop was. I run quicken and Photoshop Elements with no problem. BUT I am not a gamer.at.all. Unless Free Cell counts. The only real downside is there is no internal CD-rom. some of the "larger" netbooks are starting to put them in. I travel a ton, so the 2.5 lbs is perfect to just toss in my bag and go. makes it so much easier than Hs 17" at security too.

Night_Sprite · November 2009

I have a desktop for "real" computer use and use the eee for school and portability. It has long battery life (3+ hours with constant wireless internet). If he has sausage hands he would probably struggle. My FI has large fingers and can barely type on mine. One of the newer versions has a cd drive, which was a big deal. Mine has lots of media hookups including VGA which is nice. I think it'd be a tough primary computer. Your risk of tendonitis goes up from the position of the elbows. I can give more info if you have specifics.

tlv204 · November 2009

That's exciting

DH got me a new copy of Rudolph (the good clay one) today becauokse I lost my old one. I'm pretty stoked.

sucrets4 · November 2009

Um, I'm writing from my awesome HP that runs WoW better than H's desktop....and I bought it for myself.

alixzafiris · November 2009

I'm so lost with this new laptop, I've been exclusively using a Mac for years now and I get so confused with the switch from the command key to the control key. And windows 7 is just plain weird to me.

Gwenosaurus · November 2009

Hmm...the increased risk of tendonitis might be a problem, since he does a lot of typing for school. Next year when I move in we will also have my Mac, which is old, but faster and more reliable than his current computer.

crfische · November 2009

Well, since we have joint checking, it's all the same. BUT he broke his phone today and needed a new one. He could have gotten a droid and no netbook for yours truly, OR he could have gotten a nice blackberry and also got a netbook. He chose the blackberry and a netbook, which i didn't know was an option, so I was stoked for him to get a new phone, and he came home with a netbook, too, for me!He's good stuff, maynard.

Night_Sprite · November 2009

It's also no good for gaming. The video card wouldn't be able to handle it. No more than casual stuff. No wow, no sims, nothing video card heavy.

Gwenosaurus · November 2009

He's not much of a gamer, so that wouldn't be an issue. He just needs to write papers for school and use the internet.

aMrsin09 · November 2009

night, I watch movies on mine with no problem.

Night_Sprite · November 2009

Movies are fine. It is usually the complex hexagons that'll do it.Internet and stuff is fine. So I'd look at sausage fingers and elbow angle issues. Otherwise, there are some decent 15 and 17 inch laptops for $400-$500.

mwhitson14 · November 2009

Yay fishy that's great! I have a dell mini 10 from whoever asked. I love it. Super portable, perfect for what I need it for (internet, videos, and typing). My only gripe is short battery life and it didn't come with any word programs, but I downloaded open office to combat that (though I do miss the resume wizard and other templates). $250, refurb from dell.com

aMrsin09 · November 2009

ah yes, of course, those pesky complex hexigons... DH saw my keyboard and laughed while he was walking away. I think one of his fingers covers 2-3 keys at a time.

Night_Sprite · November 2009

Check with school before you graduate Whit. I can get office for 8 bucks through my school.

mwhitson14 · November 2009

I already did

it was still like $80.

Night_Sprite · November 2009

Oh bummer. Sorry dude. Looks like you should transfer to Iowa.

SarahSmile23 · November 2009

i am extremely jealous! envious? too much wine. can't remember which one to use.
