In the latest migration to a new virtual private server, some of the links to images in the earliest posts to this blog were broken. If you encounter one of these broken links, please let me know. I have backups and can restore the images.
There’s only one person who agrees with me on everything, and, as I’m not running for office, that person is not on the ballot.

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.
