Compy 1 2 1 2

Well, I made it to San Francisco, but I have other news: I have a new computer. If you're wondering from the last update how I was able to write something from 38,000 feet in the air, it's because of this little beauty:


I got it on Amazon for a steal ($275) and had a friend bring it down for me. I needed a way to write updates/emails in my house (even though I don't have internet) and this is perfect.

It is an Asus 901 EeePC. It's a netbook so it's really tiny but really awesome as well. See picture for size comparision.


It doesn't have a hard drive (solid state drive instead, 20GB) nor does it have a CD/DVD drive (to small), but it does have linux!!! I installed Ubuntu on it and it's running great! What's not to like about four desktops on a rotating cube. Overall, I'm highly satified with the computer and it's letting me live my inner nerd. Plus it's turned a few heads at the airport.

Alright, that's it for bring and brag. But Lord willing with this, I can get more updates out with more frequency. And hopefully, you think that's a good thing.
