2. I literally hit the floor and the laptop flew out of my hands and hit the |
|
floor too.
I screamed as I fell and not one of my kids even bothered to see what the hell was going on. I couldn't believe it.

4. My shin hurts like hell!!! My laptop has already had one side that holds |
|
the screen up broken so you have to be careful. I broke it even more but it still works so we are both OK.
:)
It has been a couple hours so I'm doing much better now then I was right after it happened. It was one of those times where you are completely blindsided and unable to protect yourself.

But that is why they call it a laptop and not a handheld. :)

6. The wireless laptops are just too enticing to not wander with them. |
|
I feel like the little dancing guy in the commercial who is now free.:evilgrin:

...but I'm beginning to think perhaps my next PC ought to be a wireless laptop. It'd sure free up some space around here.

9. I can stream AAR and take it with me around the house while doing |
|
the crappy housework or even outside stuff. I can have it on DU and hit refresh every so often to see if anything new is going on.
It is really convenient.
I love it.
I just need to make sure I keep the dishwasher closed.
