Netbook Musings

As I finally decided to do something with w4jdh.net again, I’m gonna post a blog post then decide what to do with the root site (currently just a blank index page). While the new forthcoming rage is sure to be the second (third?) iteration of the Tablet PC shown at CES, I am still drawn … Continue reading

Life with Netbook, Rev. A

I made a few posts in a series called “Life with Netbook” this past year. Well, I noticed that Dell had a good price on the Mini 10v last week, so I decided to drop the money so I’d have a 10.1″ netbook vs the Eee 901’s 8.9″. I decided this on the fact that … Continue reading

While the battery life was less than stellar on them (at … Continue reading

Arrived at the con last night around 6:15 or so, grabbed dinner with a friend, then proceeded to wander around for a bit. I got there after the dealers room had already closed, … Continue reading

Test test test. Following ZeroZephyr‘s example, I’m setting my wordpress blog to mirror itself to LJ. If you’re wondering why you saw a ton of reposts on your LJ friends lists, it’s because I was up all night trying to export my LJ to WP but failing miserably. So I’m just gonna leave LJ as … Continue reading
