Ok, so I have now posted more today than any other 2 consecutive days, and possibly more than any single week… it happens…
Another short, but sweet post, I am looking at a netbook for my wife, but have been severely disappointed with most of the offerings available, as she complains about our current laptop being too slow (Athlon 64 x2 2.2GHz with 2gigs of DDR2) so that fact that she wants a netbook kind of scares me. Well so far this is the best I have found for the price, wish I could get her into a 13″ laptop, but no go, and I’m pushing it with this 12″ one. Plus I will have to get a custom graphics vinyl wrap done to cover the outside, as she wants it to be “pretty”

currently a search on the Asus website for 1201N yields nothing. Intel’s spec page shows that it is a dual core Hyper-Threaded processor (4 total threads) I think this shows it should be powerful enough to make my wife happy, for now…
Also, I’ve updated the site, so it should only show the 3 most recent posts, this should help loading times and some scrolling issues… There should be an “archive” link on the right near the top to get to older posts click the next and previous links at the bottom… also you can use the Tag Cloud to find things. sooner or later I’ll fix the right column so it doesn’t look like a woolly mammoth dropped a pile of fertilizer over there. But, for now you are stuck with it the way it is.
