I am sitting beneath a certain relative's new laptop composing this entry. We are visiting for the weekend and I thought I would give this a try.
It weighs a ton though and already knees are going numb. The screen is as wide as an old fashioned drive-in. And the keyboard is way too weird for me after being used to a natural keyboard style for many years now. I have made so many mistakes on this entry, I'm sure I have begun to wear out the backspace button.
Let's see, what kind of laptop is this? Ummm an HP Pavilion Widescreen. I am worried that my lower legs will never be the same. I can't feel my toes anymore. Hub Man and I estimate its weight at 5 pounds. I'll bet I could find the specs online, but I just don't want to deal with the touch pad which is a poor substitute for a good old fashioned mouse. I'll give up my mouse the day that they have reliable touch SCREENS..... maybe. It will probably always seem wrong to touch the screen. some habits will die hard, that will be one of them I am sure.
Anyway, I kinda miss my regular old desktop. Sure it takes up a lot of space, and I can't carry it around with me, though carrying THIS laptop around would not be a peice of cake either come to think of it....
Well, this has not been a very complete review of this laptop, and certainly it was not unbiased. After all, a Luddite like me should probably not be permitted to review any new technology. We see evil technology empires taking around every corner.
Alas, it is late. I must depart.
If I could only use my legs......
