While I am waiting for my car, I decided to test a couple of things. First, I got a Lifebook U810 UPMC a couple of days ago. I’m trying to figure out if this computer is truly useful – or if it’s too small for these old eyes. No verdict on that yet.
Secondly – I’m -checking the internet access using my Blackberry. Hmm
Holy semiconductors, Batman, that thing is TINY!
Good luck with it, Vivian. I just got a new laptop from the company, and ordered the one with the biggest screen!
Posted by Anon E. Mouse | Thursday, June 19, 2008, 10:54 amI’ve had a small computer for years – see here. But my Sony U750P is getting a little long in the tooth and it was time for an upgrade. The other thing is that I’m trying to pack as light as possible for Denver
Posted by vjp | Thursday, June 19, 2008, 11:00 amMy “upgrade” in phones some time back took away my ability to connect my laptop to the net through my phone. Annoying enough that I may well end up reverting.
Posted by MB | Thursday, June 19, 2008, 11:39 amI’ll never be without the ability to connect to my computer using my phone. That’s an absolute no-go for me.
Posted by vjp | Thursday, June 19, 2008, 11:42 amI have an Asus eeePC. It weighs less than 2 pounds, with a 7 inch screen, and a solid state drive (flash memory instead of a hard drive – this is the direction of all computers, very, very soon). I love it. I gave my 12 year old daughter one for her birthday.
Best of all – Linux!!! Open source. It cost me $351.00 on Amazon, with free shipping. I carry it everywhere. I wouldn’t be without it, now.
