This website does not track you.
It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.
Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.
I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.
Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.

There are 2 reasons I could, if I chose to be tacky & wrong, call you names.
1. I don’t have a laptop to take outside &
2. Norther is coming in. Temps are dropping 30 degrees. Wind is from the north & cold.
If I did have a laptop, I’d be lost on it anyway.
But I’ll be nice & tell you I’m happy you can sit outside.

Just to be picky, it’s my netbook. That’s why it’s so teensy-weensy.
No, you wouldn’t be lost on a laptop. You know your way around a computer. It’s just another computer. The display, keyboard, and mouse all work the same way. Unless you are a fan of having the numlocks on. Numlocks and laptops don’t mix all that well.
And you chose to live in the frozen west. No sympathy here.

It’s not frozen! Just too cool to sit outside. Although, there is snow in Laramie. Won’t get below 7200′ & we’re at almost 6000′.
I kinda like the little thing. I checked Dell.

The worst thing about the netbook is fitting my big fat fingers on the keyboard. And the arrangement of some of the keys, like the colon and semicolon, is a little unusual so as to fit them in.
Other than that, it’s taken everything I’ve thrown at it, including photo editing and video watching. The webcam works good too. When my old laptop died, it served as my primary computer until the new one arrived.
