本日は私の新しいノートーPCはGET!

£1200 from ebay. 230,000円 This laptop runs like a dream, HalfLife2 looks stunning on the pure blacks / whites “onyx” style screen in native rez. The only gripes I have at the moment are the placement of some of the keys… the “home” & “end” keys could have been above the arrow keys but instead they are above the numeric keypad, which is annoying for when I’m coding.

Maybe I should try to convince HP to change this laptop to have a Wacom built in to the area where this trackpad lives? (yeah like they give a shit)

This is basically my wish list for this already amazing device. Practically all of the wished for features listed are apparent on a normal everyday Japanese phone.
This July, I've spent every weekend at the beach. Mostly to get stung to buggery by jellyfish.
This month, Web design note profile me and my work on; Pantone, Transport for London and Salon Boutique.
