thinking of investing in a typewriter
A Day in the Life of an HP Owner:
So there I was, walking into Java to study for a test. I look around creepily, trying to find an outlet, because God forbid my 27 pound computer even turn on without being plugged in. I don't find one and, instead, ask the adjacent table to borrow their outlet. Which always makes me feel like a stalker, because you always wait a little, just to see if they'll leave. They never do though, so you finally have to go over and be all, hey.... can I use that? Sorry. Thank you. Sorry, and thank you. Thanks.
So I sit down and look at tickets for The Fray performing with Jack's Mannequin because, what? is that not how you study for a test? And right as I am contemplating driving back to see a concert I'm almost too embarrassed to say I'd enjoy out loud, screen goes COMPLETELY. BLACK. Because the people had unplugged it. For a moment. A MOMENT.
Is it really a laptop when it turns off when you unplug it? because... I'm fairly certain that is the one and only criteria for something NOT to be a desktop.
this is what I'm saying.

agreed.
mine stays on long enough to load my desk icons and then it says "hibernating" and goes black. say whaaaat. i want it to last for hours and hours and be an awesome laptop. but no.
i would much rather be watching 30 rock in my bed, or writing my papers in bed, but instead i'm stalking YOU all the while being plugged into the wall.
sigh.
ah. i thought this was going to be a harry potter post. should've known.
