Netbooks – I mean, what’s the point, right? It’s like Tom Cruise pretending (badly) to be a Nazi soldier, but not changing his accent. Granted, there is a school of acting which says you shouldn’t do the accents and just be yourself, but I think I’m off on another Tom Cruise Tangent (I’m copyrighting that) …
Netbooks. I think I finally get what they’re about. Sure, it’s a small, underpowered, notebook wannabe (notebook: (n), a portable computer).
Except when you’re lying in bed at 1am and you want to write something down and the pen is nowhere to be found, and the notebook (notebook: (n), a small collection of paper, usually lined, bound in the form of a book) has fallen behind the back of the drawer inside the bedside table.
So tonight, I’m thinking I want a netbook, so that I can write my best-selling novels in bed. No kidding. I finally get it. Now who wants to buy me one?
I've decided I want an Acer Aspire One – the XP one, that has a hard drive in it.
I purchased a surprise for Claudia last year, one of those little ASUS EEE-PC thing magigy's. It is actually really cool, but she never uses it. I even put some man porn on it as an incentive, but alas, it seems I am enough of a pornstar for her.
Glad I got you thinking about them 🙂 Yeah typing this now on my Acer Aspire One in the lounge while the b/f is playing xbox. Great for the daily train trip into work as well. Now if you were in the UK you'd get a great deal on them from ASDA
