Sort of.
I opted for a Chromebook instead.
Everything is online. I like that. I'm fairly paranoid about losing things I have recorded digitally from spillage or droppage or Pete-created carnage. I like the cloud storage.
Just look at him eyeing it. "I'm going to destroy that once I get my chompers on it!"
So far, I have recorded one work in Google Docs. I have never used Docs before, and I really like how it saves things automatically and tracks the changes. There are probably lots of other nifty features I haven't discovered yet.
One of the niftiest feature so far is the battery life indicator. (Edit: I think I was confused about this earlier. It tells you how much time you have left, which I guess is pretty standard. EXCEPT IT IS FAIRLY ACCURATE! What's that, laptop? You can't help you are over an hour off on your estimates? Well, then...)
Also, my background is Easter Island. How cool is that?
Moving on...
The keyboard is small, but it didn't take any time at all to adjust to it since I'm very used to laptop keyboards.
I'm still in the excited phase about my new toy that I plan on actually using for work.
Hobby work.
Writing work.
Work that I hope will eventually result in a book or anthology.
Even though poetry doesn't "sell."
I wrote today. Really wrote.
That makes it worth it already.

Now, then, I'm off to digitize some old (and I mean old) pieces so I don't have to worry about my enormous storage container of spirals and journals spontaneously combusting.
