I am so fickle! A couple of posts ago I mentioned Valerie’s new netbook and that I would get one later. Then I saw the upcoming Dell mini 10 and thought that the 1366×768 resolution it will get sounded sweet. But the more I think about it, the more I want a Linux netbook. That’s [...]

Dell Inspiron Mini 10 Netbook Details
I really like the Acer Aspire One 8.9 inch netbook Valerie has but I think I want to wait for the Dell Inspiron Mini 10 Netbook. It should end up being available around the same time we get taxes back. Assuming we get anything.
New PC
We picked up a new notebook from Office Depot last night. An Acer AspireOne. It’s sooo small. It hardly weighs anything. The screen is small but at 8.9 inches but it’s 1024×600 so web pages and apps don’t get squished. Valerie is going to use this one and, unless she gets tired of it, I’ll [...]
Should We Be Recycling Paper or Building Battlestar Galactica? – Art Carden – Mises Institute

email posting
I enabled posting by email. I have sent one email to get posted. Still waiting to see if it works.

My ThinkPad came in yesterday afternoon. All good except that the battery was a little flubbed up. There’s a place on the seam where the outside casing snaps together that didn’t fit quite right. I wouldn’t even have noticed if it didn’t make the battery stick out a tiny bit. I called the service line [...]
Track my ThinkPad
I’ll just post this link to my page so it’ll be easier to track my ThinkPad. It’s been sitting in Anchorage since Friday. I guess it’s clearing Customs up there. I just wish they’d update it soon. Makes me nervous going 4 days with no update. How’s that for pushy? LOL
New laptop
I just placed an order for a new laptop. I chose a Lenovo ThinkPad T61. Specs are below. Intel Core 2 Duo processor T8100 (2.1GHz 800MHz 3MBL2) Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium (I have to get used to it) 14.1 SXGA+ TFT (that should be 1400×1050) Intel GMA X3100 GM965 (better battery life than descrete. [...]
Wicked
This is WAAY cool!
So Valerie and I are both getting spammed like crazy. So much spam that I had to stop checking mine on my phone. We finally got tired of it and started looking for a solution. We needed something that would filter the spam out before the email gets delivered to our phones and email client. [...]
