New toy
I bought a white EEE PC 1000HA.
There was a great sale on NCIX as well as free express shipping on Wednesday. All together, it totaled $490 including taxes.
- Screw you Andrew: it wasn’t $600
- Calc fail as Qifan pointed out.
- Screw you Andrew: keyboard is 92% of full notebook.
- Screw you Andrew: You’ll be jealous when you see it.
Yes - a lot of Song hate. 
It got here on Friday and I picked it up on Saturday at the sketchy store where Purolator deliveries get dropped off for my area. Within 30 mins of having unpacked it, I had the ’special’ ubuntu-eee on it. It looks nice, but I’m not really a fan of the the ‘home screen’ thing. I managed to get rid of it for about 10 minutes once, but now I can’t anymore.
Windows XP is also on it (dual booting) and it’s noticeably faster than my desktop machine… That’s a bit sad. My desktop, “Alfredo”, is pretty old though.
Will post pics of cute little lappie later.
Sidenote: Typing this from work. It’s Sunday. I’m at work.
Andrew
Fine, I get it. You don’t love me, and you never will. Don’t try and make this about the Eee.
