If you insist on keeping your computer in a living room, it might as well be this one.

Haha
Mine already weighs a ton, I don't mind lugging another one around. No difference.

2.8lbs. I wasn't sure it'd pack enough punch, but for what I use a computer for (writing, net surfing, basic photoshop, and a bit of youtube) my netbook has been absolutely amazing. It weighs less then books I've carried around, and once you get used to the wee screen, a normal sized monitor looks wastefully large.

Yeah, I love my little netbook... *kisses his N120*

MACBOOK here
Last night 'twas witching Hallowe'en
Dearest; an apple russet- brown
I pared, and thrice above my crown
Whirled the long skin; they watched in keen;
I flung it far; they laughed and cried me shame
Dearest, there lay the letter of your name!

The Victorian Era meest the Computer Age. Some of those computers and monitors reminded me of the tv show "Wild, Wild, West." For those of you who are too young to remember, this was a western type tv show. It took place in the 19th century. West was the name of the main character who was the 19th century equivelant of a 'secret agent.' Being a secret agent he had access to movie projectors, slide projectors, light bulbs, and other technoligies that didn't "officialy" exist until the 20th century. One of my favorite episodes was when West showed a silent movie, with a projector that used a lime light as a light source.

I use mine for the same reason, music & graphic art projects & a little for photo shop.
I love mine, I have never had it crash on me in the 6 years I've owned it, I haven't had any virus's either. Witchy
