What. The. Hell.

Looks like a kid's computer. Also looks like something I'll probably never get my hands on.

Saying that, I used a laptop once. It stuffed up my USB, and I lost a ton of English homework. Which reminds me. I should finish writing up on "The General". That was an interesting movie. Quite funny for a 1920s silent film.

I want that thing. That computer looks "rawr!"

I generally don't like touch screens unless you're drawing. They just don't feel precise or responsive enough. Plus, writing with one is a lot slower.

Eh. Typing on that wouldn't really be terribly good for your fingers. The Star Trek-like novelty would wear off pretty fast when you find that the ends of your fingers are now flat and a bone is poking out of one of your joints.

Now ... if they made it a thing where instead of it just being a hard screen, it had some flexibility to it, it would help a bit.

Well, you can always attach a real keyboard via USB

It'll probably do well as an "e-reader" though if you can have two pages on the two screens.

You could just, y'know, not hit the "keys" so hard.

[Ben]

There is that, but ... it will require you to hit the keys so hard to avoid accidental input.

Off topic: Nice your name is back, Noir. I was almost confused earlier.

Wow, that laptop looks awesome! Can't wait to get my hands on it.

If it's not a Mac (or running Linux) I don't want it, to be frank. And I'm most Definitely Not Frank.

... that makes no sense does it.

We are using components from Red Hat's Fedora Core 6 version of the Linux operating system; we are tracking the main kernel fairly closely.

Not really, no.

I finished Half Life 2 again. Breen is awesome. I'm using this thread to update my avatar instead of the one I'm supposed to. ^_^ I'm such a rebel.

Why is it that some people get offended by my "Bad Mother ****er" wallet?

There's nothing to be offended about.

Either people don't get it, they laugh like crazy, or they're all like "That's offensive!"

What's so offensive about it? It just shows I'm a bad mother ****er!

You will just need to torture them, like Mr. Blonde.

As for being offended by such a wallet, the person is calling himself that. How can one be offended by aiming profanity at the self? For something to be offensive, it has to be directed at any particular group of people (which may or may not include the self) or one specific person that is not yourself.

Nathaniel, you really are the older me!

I agree completely. That's why I think it's completely retarded when some lady will approach me at the bank saying that my wallet is offensive and that I should get a new one before going in public again!
