Melinda and I have been blogging for about three years now and Melinda is currently on her second laptop soon to be third. Her first laptop had a problem with the screen that Dell was never able to fix so after some complaining they sent her a brand new replacement laptop back in October 2009. About three months ago Melinda knocked her laptop off the side of the couch and broke the plastic on the screen’s hinge and now wires are exposed. Funny thing is Melinda always yells at me for leaving my laptop on the arm of the sofa and she is the one who knocked hers off. LOL. Also, for the record I am still on my first laptop so HA!
So right now Melinda and I have been looking at laptops, netbooks and tablet pc’s trying to figure out which item would be a good replacement for her laptop. In my opinion I like the tablet pc’s because they are small and very portable. The one downside to a table pc is price. They are just as expensive if not more expensive then a new laptop plus a lot of them you need a data plan. The other hurdle is figuring out what tablet pc to buy since there must be 20 different ones on the market currently. So, needless to say we have a lot of research to do to figure out what is going to best suit her.
We have also talked about looking at the HP laser printers and seeing if this would be a good replacement for our current photo printer. We tend to print a lot of stuff but typically not a lot of photos. This would be a luxury right now because our main focus is on finding Melinda a replacement for her laptop but she needs something that is spill proof, bullet proof and unbreakable. LOL. Wonder if they make a laptop that have these qualities. I doubt it so she is just going to need to be careful this time.
