sebastienneA man came into the library an hour or so ago with a shiny new ASUS Eeepc, bought in Toys R Us for £219.
I am still salivating now. It was so beautiful! Like I imagined my perfect piece of tech and it just popped into existence. Such a perfectly crafted OS with a 15-second boot time and swift-opening open-source programs. He has promised to report back how it fares with the internet, but I'm assuming well.
I am going to be purchasing one of these Very Soon Indeed unless someone can give me a good reason why I shouldn't.
So, yes, I'm working on a Saturday. With a case of friend-of-a-friend head lice that is nevertheless near enough that I'm going to be attacking my head with chemicals and boiling my lovely satin bedlinen, just in case. The combined power of British Gas, the landlady, and her workmen, are unable to fix our heating, and I woke up in a frigid room despite having had a costly electric heater on all night. But I'm still over the fscking moon! £219!
