I love early Christmas presents!

I leave for a business trip to Atlanta in the morning, and Mike was convinced that my laptop was not suitable for travel, so I got an early Christmas present…an HP Mini! It was waiting at the door when I got home, but I did the right thing and packed for my trip first, so that I could spend the rest of the night fiddling with my new toy and downloading all my favorite programs.

So far, my favorite feature is the built in webcam so that I can record 12seconds videos!

    Oh how cool! That Mike is a keeper! Have a great trip.

    I thought you guys cancelled Christmas! If that’s the kind of gift you get for calling it off… I need to do it ASAP.

    I have actually been shopping for a new laptop for over a month. I think I’m going to get a Dell, but still haven’t taken the financial plunge. Maybe I need to give D some serious hints.

    Laurie – that’s the ONLY present being purchased. Mike just got a new laptop, and we’ve called off Christmas with the entire family.

  • Corrin


    Thanks, Val. Yeah, he did good.

    Karen – he’s earned his keep for a few more months, at least. Haha.

    That little thing is awesome! What a very nice gift. I wonder how long the battery life is.

    Daly – It’s about 3 hours…perfect for traveling! It comes with a 3-cell battery, but I’m almost positive you can upgrade to a 6-cell.

  • Daly


    That’s really darn good!! Congratulations–it is such an awesome little machine.
